Bill Monroe & His Bluegrass Boys

William Smith Monroe (; September 13, 1911 – September 9, 1996) was an American mandolinist, singer, and songwriter, who created the bluegrass music genre. Because of this, he is often called the "Father of Bluegrass".The genre takes its name from his band, the Blue Grass Boys, who named their group for the bluegrass of Monroe's home state of Kentucky. He described the genre as "Scottish bagpipes and ole-time fiddlin'. It's Methodist and Holiness and Baptist. It's blues and jazz, and it has a high lonesome sound." more »

I hear a voice callin'
It must be our Lord
It's comin' from Heaven on high

I hear a voice callin'
I've gained a reward
For the land where we never shall die

The Savior has paid a great price for me
He gave His life on Calvary
So I'll follow His footsteps up the narrow way
And be ready to meet Him when He calls on that day

I hear a voice callin'
It must be our Lord
It's comin' from Heaven on high

I hear a voice callin'
I've gained a reward
For the land where we never shall die

He died on the cross, the old rugged cross
That we would be saved from sin and not lost
So I'll follow His footsteps up the narrow way
And we'll pay our debts on that great judgment day

I hear a voice callin'
It must be our Lord
It's comin' from Heaven on high

I hear a voice callin'
I've gained a reward
For the land where we never shall die
