about

We often face levels upon levels of rejection, and it can be frustrating and downright discouraging. And, because we know every failure and fear we've ever had, sometimes, it's hard to imagine that God would choose us and use us for His glory. But He did. He does. These are the types of thoughts that led to my new single, You Chose Me. It is a neo-soul, gospel ballad that explores the awestruck wonder of being chosen by God.

lyrics

Played the fool, I've been broken
Not knowing Who to put my hope in
Didn't wanna be found, but I knew I was lost
Wasted time living reckless
Didn't care that I was being selfish
Knowing it was my sin that nailed You to the cross...and yet

You chose me for eternal life
And set me on the path that's right
Show me what to do, show me what to say, show me where to go
I want to live Your way

I can't believe that You chose me
I know I'll never be worthy
But by Your grace I am redeemed, by Your love I've been set free, please use me for Your glory
I can't believe that You chose me
Chose me

Who am I that You bless me
And forgive the times I'm bein messy
It's a debt that I'll never be able to repay
I bow in awe of Your mercy
'Cause I know my walk is imperfect, and I
Thank You for the changes You make in me everyday

You chose me for eternal life
And set me on the path that's right
Show me what to do, show me what to say, show me where to go
I want to live Your way

I can't believe that You chose me
I know I'll never be worthy
But by Your grace I am redeemed, by Your love I've been set free, please use me for Your glory
I can't believe that You chose me
I know I'll never be worthy
But by Your grace I am redeemed, by Your love I've been set free, please use me for Your glory
I can't believe that You chose me
Chose me

You called me out of darkness into light
You called me out of darkness into light

I can't believe that You chose me
I know I'll never be worthy
But by Your grace I am redeemed, by Your love I've been set free, please use me for Your glory
I can't believe that You chose me
