My Lord I did not choose You
For that could never be
My heart would still refuse You
Had You not chosen me
You took the sin that stained me
Cleansed me, made me new
Of old, You have ordained me
That I should live in You
My Lord I did not choose You
For that could never be
My heart would still refuse You
Had You not chosen me
Unless Your grace had called me
And taught my opening mind
The world would have enthralled me
To heavenly glories blind
My Lord I did not choose You
For that could never be
My heart would still refuse You
Had You not chosen me
My heart knows none above You
For Your rich grace I thirst
I know that if I love You
You must have loved me first
My Lord I did not choose You
For that could never be
My heart would still refuse You
Had You not chosen me
