I Choose Life

I Choose Life
Verse 1:
Atop the mountain, where we walk bare,
There we kneel and lift our prayers.
Lord, can You hear us? No one cheers;
We keep still to ward off bears.
Longing to sing Your praise, O Redeemer,
Yearning to find our peace in You, Saviour.
Yet before us, Lord, stands the deceiver,
Stirring storms, hoping we’ll surrender.
Chorus:
I choose life; I choose You.
I choose You, Jesus; Your love is true.
You gave me free will but I need You,
Guide me forever, faithful and true.
Verse 2
Who would’ve known; You chose me first,
You quenched my soul when it burned with thirst.
You lifted me from the pit of shame,
You healed my heart and called my name.
I’ll praise You, Lord, until the end of time,
I’ll sing Your glory far beyond the stars.
With joy I’ll shout and bless Your holy name,
Dancing through the storms—I’ve found Your grace. Chorus
Bridge:
Praise the Lord, O my soul,
Glorify His holy name.
Sing His praise, for every knee shall bow before His throne.
Amazing, You are amazing;
Jesus, the joy that fills my heart.
Amazing, You are amazing;
It’s Your joy, Lord, that fills my heart . Chorus
