1. You Chose Me

I
was a dead man at the bottom of the ocean Cold and
lifeless, boats passin’ over me Then You reached
down through murky water Pulled my body out and
breathed Your life in me No, I didn’t choose
You, my Lord You chose me
I
was Lazarus, laid in a gloomy tomb On a cold stone
slab, people crying over me Then you wept loud,
and yelled “Come on out!” And I rose, I rose
for all to see No, I didn’t choose You, my Lord,
You chose me
‘Cause
a dead man can’t grab hold of a life vest And he
can’t raise himself off a stone Only You can
quicken the heart of the ones You call Your own
And You call Your own
Now
I’m born again Awakened from the dead Was blind
and lost, but now am found and free And though I
stumble, and stray like a dumb sheep Your rod and
staff keep and comfort me Though I didn’t choose
You, my Lord, I thank You for choosing me Though I
didn’t choose You, my Lord, I thank You for
holding on, holding on to me Thank You, thank You
for choosing me
