Chosen By the Love of God
The truth of scripture blows my mind
having it revealed to me by his holy book
God's spirit speaking deep to my heart
showing his great love for me is no fluke
Out of this incredible love God pours it forth
before time began he chose myself and my name
but why me? even before I came from mum's womb
Lord's hand set upon me before my body came
This is indeed such great mystery
me a sinner loved by sovereign Lord
his love took Jesus his son to my cross
rising again from dead as a swift sword
Promising one day I will also rise
to meet my Lord in heaven's glory
but until then being my loving father
so I worship my God calling him holy
From my first breath I was dead in sin
but God in his love drew me through
chosen by the amazing love of God
to change me into God's creation anew
