The Love That Chose Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a light that leads the weary home A love that finds the ones alone Heaven saw a child without a place And sent an angel full of grace You looked at me and chose to stay You gave my life a brand new way [Chorus] Oh, you laid your own life down So that I'd be safe and sound Selfless love, a holy flame Heaven knows your faithful name Cely, I will lift my praise For the love that chose me all my days [Verse 2] I was a child no one would claim You took me in and gave your name You didn't always have it all But you were there for every fall I know you gave your very best And placed yourself behind the rest [Chorus] Oh, you laid your own life down So that I'd be safe and sound Selfless love, a holy flame Heaven knows your faithful name Cely, I will lift my praise For the love that chose me all my days [Bridge] Who knows where I would be If you had not reached for me Every blessing that I hold Started in your heart of gold [Verse 3] Now you rest where angels sing Wrapped in peace beneath His wing Your strength, your courage, still in me Your grace lives on in family I'll carry forward all you gave A love much stronger than the grave [Chorus] Oh, you laid your own life down Now you wear a golden crown Selfless love, a holy flame Heaven knows your faithful name Cely, I will lift my praise For the love that chose me all my days [Outro] Mama, eternally grateful I'll be Forever thankful you chose me
