Chosen by God

I was chosen by God long before

The foundations of earth He did form.

It was by God’s foreknowledge so vast

That one day He would call me at last.

I am chosen by God

And although I may feel that I’m flawed

It’s His mercy I see

That by God’s grace He ever chose me.

He chose me for the purpose He planned

To express Him

that’s why He made man

And to represent God as a king

One day ruling with Him o’er all things.

Although chosen by God we have been

We can still have the struggles within.

For the troubles without cause us pain

Yet through “all things” our God we will gain.

Just like Jacob of old we can be

One to bless others thus

Lord

with Thee.

Then we’ll worship our God just like him

For His shepherding work done within.
