Lord, I confess my attention has wondered from you
My heart needs a course correction
Back to what it's true
Of a thousand things I'd run to
You're still the only one who satisfies
So, Jesus, every time
I choose you
Nobody loves me the way that you do
I choose you
Over and over
'Cause you choose me
When I gave you nothing you gave everything
All my life
You're calling me closer
So, I choose you
Over and over
Hands lifted up as I made them
Made them for good for what is best
Surrender all at the altar
And trust you with the rest
You're calling me out of my grave
No turning back now
I've made up my mind
Jesus, every time
I choose you
Nobody loves me the way that you do
I choose you
Over and over
'Cause you choose me
When I gave nothing you gave everything
All my life you're calling me closer
So, I choose you
Over and over
Again
If you're not in it, I don't want it
Here's my heart, take all of it
If you say, "Follow," God I'm running to you
If you're not in it, I don't want it
Here's my heart, take all of it
If you say, "Follow," God I'm running to you
If you're not in it, I don't want it
Here's my heart, take all of it
If you say, "Follow," God I'm running to you
I choose you
Nobody loves me the way that you do
I choose you
Over and over
'Cause you choose me
When I gave nothing you gave everything
All my life you're calling me closer
So, I choose you
Over and over
I choose you over and over
Again
