My Lord I Did Not Choose You

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
