I Can And I Will

We have a choice to do or not do
                          We have a choice to see or not see
                            We have a choice to love or to hate
                                I choose to love because in love
                                     There are healing
                                       There are wealth
                                 I can and I will love
                                    I can and I will give
                                        I can and I will live
                                          Because through Christ
                                             I have life and life more abundantly

                            As Christ said to the fig tree
                                You will obey my will
                                  Still I must choose to live
                                    The enemies come to steal
                                      Come to kill
                                        Come to destroy
                                         But Christ came and gave life
                                           And life more abundantly
                                    To all those who would believe
                                        To all those who would receive
                                            I achieve and take it
                                               I can and I will
                                      In Jesus name I choose to live
