[Intro – rhythmic, building]
Yeah…
Ohhh…
Clap your hands if you know who you are…
(Choir hums in background)
You might feel unwanted…
But you’re chosen… yeah!
[Verse 1 – bounce / groove]
I used to feel like I ain’t belong
No calls, no texts, just silence too long
Smiling outside but hurting within
Fighting these thoughts that keep creeping in
Talking to mirrors like “who am I?”
Questioning worth, yeah I won’t lie
But something inside wouldn’t let me fall
A quiet voice kept saying I’m called
[Pre-Chorus – lift]
No, they don’t see what You see in me
Hidden treasure they couldn’t read
Now I hear You calling me free….
[Chorus – BIG, upbeat, choir]
I was that unwanted soul
But God said, “You are whole!”
Even when they passed me by
He said, “You’re Mine, don’t you cry!”
I was left out in the cold
But I’m covered, I’m not alone
Now I hear Heaven say—
“You were chosen all the way!”
(Choir: Chosen! Loved! Covered! Whole!)
[Pre-Chorus – lift]
No, they don’t see what You see in me
Hidden treasure they couldn’t read
Now I hear You calling me free…
[Chorus – BIG, upbeat, choir]
I was that unwanted soul
But God said, “You are whole!”
Even when they passed me by
He said, “You’re Mine, don’t you cry!”
I was left out in the cold
But I’m covered, I’m not alone
Now I hear Heaven say—
“You were chosen all the way!”
(Choir: Chosen! Loved! Covered! Whole!)
[Verse 2 – confident bounce]
Yeah, we different, we stand out
That’s what purpose really ‘bout
They don’t get it, that’s okay
I was built a different way
Every laugh didn’t break me down
Every tear just turned around
Now I’m stronger than before
I ain’t searching anymore
[Pre-Chorus 2 – stronger]
Now I see what You placed in me
All this strength, all this destiny
I don’t need their validation—I’m free!
Chorus – bigger
I was that unwanted soul
But God said, “You are whole!”
Even when they passed me by
He said, “You’re Mine, don’t you cry!”
I was left out in the cold
But I’m covered, I’m not alone
Now I hear Heaven say—
“You were chosen all the way!”
[Bridge – Gospel explosion / choir call & response]
(Call) They didn’t pick me!
(Response) BUT YOU DID!
(Call) They didn’t see me!
(Response) BUT YOU DID!
(Call) When I was empty!
(Response) YOU FILLED!
(Call) When I was broken!
(Response) YOU HEALED!
(Yeah! Glory! I hear You Lord!)
[Breakdown – clap groove]
No more feeling low… (No more!)
I know who I am… (I know!)
I gave Him my heart… (All of it!)
Now I understand…
Final Chorus – victory, layered vocals
I’m not that unwanted soul
Now I’m walking bold
I don’t need approval
I know what Heaven told
I was set apart for more
That’s what I was made for
If I walk this road alone—
That means I’m chosen for sure!
Choir: Chosen! Set apart! Walking in purpose!
Outro – joyful, light
Yeah…
Sometimes “unwanted”…
Really means set apart
Chosen from the start…
