E          A       E                          B     E
My Lord, I did not choose You, for that could never be
               A        E                    B      E
My heart would still refuse You, had You not chosen me

             A       E                     B       E
Of old You have ordained me, that I should live in You

           A          E                       B         E
The world would have enthralled me, to heavenly glories blind

               A       E                     B      E
My heart would still refuse You, had you not chosen me

E              A      E                        B       E
My heart knows none above You, for Your rich grace I thirst
            A       E                       B     E
I know that if I love You, You must have loved me first
 
[Chorus 2]
E          A       E                          B     E
My Lord, I did not choose You, for that could never be
               A       E                     B      E
My heart would still refuse You, had you not chosen me

Just from sin and self to cease

Just from Jesus simply taking
          A        Bsus B   E
Life and rest, and joy and peace

Precious Jesus, Savior, friend

And I know that thou art with me
         A     Bsus B  E
Wilt be with me to the end

How I've proved him o'er and o'er!
 E              A       E
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
        A        B        E
