Chosen Just For You

He knew the heart's longing;
Chosen to become more like him,
He knew that Godly desire;
Chosen among a crowd of followers,
He knew whom would answer his call,
Seeded in the depths of your heart,
He knew your dedication;  your abilities,
Your ambition to serve Him.
Chosen from a world filled with darkness
He knew of life's harshness to come;
Times when dark clouds threaten your abilities,
Times when despair seeps into your soul,
Times of dismay, confusion, and strife.
He knew the soul of His chosen one.
The times upon your knees in prayer,
The sorrows, the hurts, the joys He knows.
He knew His will would be fulfilled.
Chosen just for you
He knew His Word would be shared.
Chosen by His hand,
His work to be completed,
You listen, you obey, you hear.
He knew the chosen ones heart
Of the path you would follow.
