The Chosen
Choosing me
Silenced the past
with mercy, you showed me
the meaning of absolution,
the compassion, the truth
secreted just beyond
Your grace
Singing praises
Isn’t even the adoration
You deserve the faith
Prayer of hope,
Guiding me through
The darkness, reflecting
The meaning of grace
The praise invites my heart
To love unconditionally
With a love that only You
Could have stirred
Choosing me
Coloring me in light
Your life’s fire, the passion
The peace and glory
You brought, with Your
Sacrifice You stirred
My heart to fight for life
Choosing me, You
Smiled stillness that
Completes, redeems, reminds
Me that Your love is eternally
With me, always saving
Me from the demons that
Hope to dissuade the faith
You created in me
faith that silences
every doubt skeptics
breath to dissuade me
from the truth – YOU
are the answer to my every
need, my every dream –
You are the reality that occurs to me
when I seek the eternal,
the everlasting – I believe
because you chose me
John 15:16 (KJV)
Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
