So many choices, options, decisions Bombarded barraged created divisions The possibilities are endless; a veritable buffet This is the world in which we live today We choose how we act, how we feel and what we wear We choose what we say and how much we want to care God gave us free-will he gave us a choice He gave us our minds and he gave us a voice Tricked into the sin of jealousy and pride Realizing the mistake and trying to hide Like Lucifer we too fell from Grace And sin entered in to the whole human race But God in his mercy would not be outdone For in the fullness of time he would send his one and only son To suffer and die and rise from the grave Not to judge or condemn but that we might be saved He gave himself freely; his body and blood The ultimate expression of his divine love Our hearts are broken and we seek things to fill But no matter what we try nothing fits the bill His body as bread he joins his heart to ours His blood the wine sweeter than flowers United on a physical and fundamental plane So intimate and so profound you can never be the same We have a choice: we can be believe and accept Or we can deny, and doubt and be circumspect But we have a choice and it can’t be coerced What will satisfy this longing this deep thirst And when all is said and done at the end of the age It’s your turn in the spotlight it’s your time on the stage Our choices carry a surprising amount of weight Did you choose to love, did you forgive instead of hate Did you follow in His footsteps and help others on the road Did you ease someone’s burden, help them carry the load Many times you have to make choices that are hard None come through not bruised or cut or scarred Though the way is hard and the journey ever long We are not alone and together we are made strong In the world of a million choices there is one that I will make Find something that will mark me like a stamp or seal I choose to live a life of love that’s real and not just some cheap fake
