Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Queen Esther's story shows me that I can stand for right.
Elisha taught that angels protect me by my side.
Like David, I can slay Goliaths in my way.
Like Deborah, I can lead my friends to Christ.

I will choose to serve the Lord,
Like my scripture heroes of old.
As I learn and grow in faith,
God will be my strength.
With every step I take,
I will choose to serve the Lord.

Like Moses, I find courage, for God provides a way.
Like Noah, I will listen to heaven and obey.
I'll trust the Lord, like Job, and live with love and hope.
Like Hannah, God will hear me when I pray.

I will choose to serve the Lord,
Like my scripture heroes of old.
As I learn and grow in faith,
God will be my strength.
With every step I take,
I will choose to serve the Lord.

Caleb was brave.
Joseph forgave.
Ruth stayed.
Daniel prayed.
Jonah changed.

I will choose to serve the Lord,
Like my scripture heroes of old.
As I learn and grow in faith,
God will be my strength.
With every step I take,
I will choose to serve the Lord.

God will be my strength.
With every step I take,
I will choose to serve the Lord.
