I Chose You

I could pray all day
But it wouldn’t be enough
I could find all the right things to say
It wouldn’t win me anymore of Your love
I could pray all day, no
But it wouldn’t be enough
I could find all the right things to say
It wouldn’t win me any more of Your love
I could live in a Christ-like way
But it wouldn’t earn me one more minute
I do my best to make You stay
But You won’t unless my heart is in it
I could work my whole life long to try to earn my wings
I could teach the right from the wrong
But without You it won’t mean a thing

I can, can tell about You
I just lose my voice
But if I want to know You
I gotta make a choice
I choose You
You have chosen me to be alive today
This much is true
And You have given me the ability to seek and know You
Whether I believe, it won’t change the fact of what You did
But You’ll leave it up to me
Choose the right way, choose to live

It’s true, I choose You
The only way to know You
Is to lay my life before You
It’s true, I choose You
I choose You, I choose You
I choose You
Time will pass with or without me
You’ve given me a choice of what to do
I can deceive myself
Or I can choose to live in the truth
Your perfect love will never change
Yesterday, today, tomorrow, still the same
Your promise leaves me with one thing to say
I choose You
