God Chose Us
Praise God Father of our Lord,
Through Jesus Christ He is adored;
And in return God has blessed me,
With spiritual blessings amply.
Everything Heaven can give,
To the fullest my life to live;
Even though I honor the Lord,
Not deserving of the reward.
Before creation of this earth,
The Father knew what we were worth;
And so He chose us through His Son,
Then with Him we could be as one.
Able for us to enter the light,
Holy and perfect in His sight;
Because of love God did embrace,
Each of us with all of His grace.
Adopting us God freely chose,
As His children as the love flows;
And had given in His dear Son,
The praise and glory to each one.
Through the blood of Jesus Christ,
On the cross being sacrificed;
We were set free from our sin,
Which His Spirit will cleanse within.
God forgives all our failures,
As well as the ill behaviors;
From His overflowing kindness,
With His wisdom and blessedness.
