Chosen and beloved
SONG: A song about God’s amazing love and hope for us.
You were called, chosen and beloved by God before He laid the foundations of the earth. Long before you were born, He loved you and planned your days; His thoughts for you are of a future and a hope. Will you answer this call by giving your all to live for Him?
Lyrics: Chosen and beloved
In the springtime of your youth,
Believe God cares for you. You are beloved.
In God’s sight you precious are.
In each trial He’s never far. He knows your heart’s longing.
Long before He formed the universe He thought of you,
And in love He planned your days on earth here too.
Do you see your high and holy call?
Will you live for Him and offer all
To be a servant of the Lord, believing His word?
It is true. The Lord has called and chosen you!
Every day that passes by,
The time that seems to fly, how do you use it?
Give it all to God so dear.
Just a little while we’re here, you’ll never regret it.
For your heart cannot be satisfied on earth alone,
God created you for heaven; it’s your home.
Give Him all, live totally for Him!
You are called. Seek fellowship here in the light,
For that has greater worth than all else on earth.
You’ll be free!
Give Him all, live totally for Him!
You are called. Seek fellowship here in the light,
For that has greater worth than all else on earth.
You’ll be free! Together with the saints you’ll be.
