Choosing

Choosing"

Everyday we are chosen to see a brand new day
We walk alot of places But fear to walk in Faith
We've become such an asset to this world
What are we doing, we're feening for a pot that we can't finish brewing Yet we 
refuse to live the right way
Still stuck on what others might say
Paving away someone died
And all we do is live a lie
We only cry when things go Bad
We don't yearn for that relationship we never had had
Unconditional what is that
God gives us a Word How do we react
We turn our back Totally the opposite way Walk around like everything is 
okay When we don't realize we are loosing
While others are out here choosing
Is it confusing to be ashame to say
I want to serve you Lord in every way
Do I display the life of a Christian
Is my walk with my Father one that glistens
Do I need a fixing Or is my soul broke
When I climb is there still rope
For hope or is it done Has the enemy begun
To try and take me No please don't mistake me
God I won't forsake thee 
I'm tired of missing You don't require a lot just listen be obedient pay 
attention To your voice and the consequences
It's my choice I have fallen time after time And you've caught me
With my battles you have fought thee
And I've just sat, now realizing you've always had my back
I don't need a plaque or recognition
With my sins I ask that they're forgiven
Jesus had risen this I know
Why is it so hard to let go
Of this place we we're created
Yet we treat each other like we are hated
One another how Could I be so self centered
When it comes to you
I'm out here working really hurting Because I'm not getting treated like I 
deserve and That's a word in its self This I know I just want to let go of me 
and be more of you I want to represent the truth 
Even in my youth of age
I don't want to continue to make the same mistakes I know in life I'll fall down 
But in the end I want my wings and my crown I want to be found and not lost 
I want to give praise for cost
It's deeper than just being here on earth
I want to be a vision of rebirth Of a feeling that only God can bring I want to 
earn things Not let them be given I want to choose to follow God that's my 
decision
I'd rather lose this world we live in At its pace
I'd rather thank him for his Grace
I know I haven't done everything right I just want to live right Lead and I 
promise to follow I'll leave it all behind just to get right with you
Whether I win or I'm loosing
It's you Lord I'm choosing
