Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Long before the stars were lit, before my heart could beat God already fixed His eyes on me [Chorus] He chose me first when I had done no good Not for my works, not for the faith I never could Pure grace alone from eternity past Before the world turned, the choice was cast No merit, no reason found in me He loved me freely, sovereignly [Verse 1] [Normal flow] I wasn’t looking, wasn’t running toward the light Blind and rebellious, lost in the night But God before creation, in His perfect plan Set His affection on this fallen man [Double time rap – faster cadence, punchy syllables] Not ’cause He saw I’d choose Him, not ’cause I’d turn around Not for my future goodness, not for the faith I’d found No conditions, no bargaining, no price that I could bring It was all Him, all mercy, all sovereign King! [Chorus] He chose me first when I had done no good Not for my works, not for the faith I never could Pure grace alone from eternity past Before the world turned, the choice was cast No merit, no reason found in me He loved me freely, sovereignly [Verse 2] [Normal flow] From the foundation He wrote my name in grace Before I breathed or even saw His face Not based on what I’d do or what I’d say But by His purpose, in His own way [Double time rap – faster cadence, punchy syllables] Jacob before Esau, loved without a cause Pharaoh raised up to show His holy laws I’m the clay, He’s the Potter, who am I to fight? He chose the unworthy and called it right! [Chorus] He chose me first when I had done no good Not for my works, not for the faith I never could Pure grace alone from eternity past Before the world turned, the choice was cast No merit, no reason found in me He loved me freely, sovereignly [Outro] So now I stand amazed at this mystery He picked the broken to set us free If you hear the call and feel the pull inside It’s ’cause He chose you before time replied Rest in His grace, the choice was never mine Glory to the Savior who chose me in time [Volin & Drum Solo]
