I don't know why You chose me,
To be a child of Yours.
Or why You stay close by me,
And open many doors.
I don't know why You want me Lord,
I don't deserve Your love.
And yet You chose to die for me,
And bless me from above.
I don't know why You stick by me,
When I don't come to You.
I wander off and lose my way,
Then don't know what to do.
But suddenly I feel Your touch,
Surround my heart and soul.
You've promised me You'll never leave,
And that You'll make me whole.
I feel so blessed and honoured too,
To be a child of Yours.
Although I do not understand,
On me Your love just pours.
It flows like water over me,
Refreshing and so sweet.
I'm overflowing with You Lord,
You make me feel complete.
I don't know why You chose me,
To be a child of Yours.
But Lord I'm just so thankful,
That I'm a child of Yours.
