Le Choix de Dieu

I was not qualified
I didn't have luck on my side
No one would have dared to bet on me (or yet)
Imagine me achieving great feats (and one fine day)

You sent Samuel to my house (hallelujah)
So the crown could find its king
I was missing from the list of contenders (and yet)
The oil was poured on my head

I am God's choice (oh eh)
I am God's choice (oh eh)
I live happy days
My life in the hands of the glorious God

I am God's choice (oh eh)
I am God's choice (oh eh)
I live happy days
My life in the hands of the glorious God

All of this seemed like a dream (my God)
When I think about it, Lord, I praise you (thank you Jesus)
Your eyes sought me out and rested on me

Your favor met my ways
(And I am aware that all I am today)
All I am today
(All I have accomplished with you)

All I have accomplished with you (my God)
Is the fruit of your grace and love
(So my greatest prayer)
Is to be with you forever

I am God's choice (oh eh)
I am God's choice (oh eh)
I live happy days
My life in the hands of the glorious God

I am God's choice (oh eh)
I am God's choice (oh eh)
I live happy days
My life in the hands of the glorious God

My whole life is the fruit of your grace
Nothing destined me to what you made of me
You overturned the predictions of my enemies, oh

You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me

You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me
You chose me, you chose me

The Lord chose me, Odébar rejected me
At the King's table I am seated (na vandi na vandi)
Nzambe na pési yo, thank you

The Lord chose me, Odébar rejected me
At the King's table I am seated (na vandi na vandi)
Nzambe na pési yo, thank you

I give thanks
I can't stop giving thanks
Gratitude is all I have
I am nothing without you Jesus, thank you
