Greatest Love

I choose to love You, Lord, with all my heart 

But yet I know it struggles to be true
It yearns to hold all truth that You impart

To always beat in harmony with You

 

I choose to love You, Lord, with all my soul

To know my own surrender to Your will

The whispering world claims it can make me whole

But You alone, my life with purpose fill

 

I choose to love You, Lord, with all my mind

Re-write my thoughts, that I might know Your way

I cast all foolish frippery behind

Upon Your highway, Lord, I long to stay

 

I choose to love You, Lord, with all my strength

Yours is the power that works through all of me

There’s nought I own that meets the width and length

Yours is the might, the miracle I see

 

I choose to love the ones You call Your own

Your treasure placed in me, on them I pour

A harvest bounty from the seeds I’ve sown

And riches gleaned as I Your word explore

 

I choose their joys and sorrows, make them mine

My sword I wield to keep them all secure

For I and they are precious on Your vine

The fruit we bear together will endure

 

I choose Your Kingdom now and will pursue

To build the part You have bestowed on me

My King in all His glory fills my view

Your Kingdom seen in me, Lord, let it be
