From the recording Why Follow Jesus

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
I walked in shadows, lost and blind,
A restless heart, no peace to find,
The world called loud with empty cheer,
But then His voice broke through my fear.
(Pre-Chorus)
A crossroads stood before my soul,
Two paths to take, one made me whole,
I heard Him call, so clear and bright,
I turned my feet and chose the Light!
(Chorus)
I chose the Light, oh, praise His name,
Out of the dark, His mercy came,
No more in chains, my soul takes flight,
Hallelujah, I chose the Light!
(Verse 2)
The night was cold, the way was long,
Temptation whispered I’d belong,
But Jesus shone, a beacon true,
His love reached down and pulled me through.
(Pre-Chorus)
A crossroads stood before my soul,
Two paths to take, one made me whole,
I heard Him call, so clear and bright,
I turned my feet and chose the Light!
(Chorus)
I chose the Light, oh, praise His name,
Out of the dark, His mercy came,
No more in chains, my soul takes flight,
Hallelujah, I chose the Light!
(Bridge)
Oh, the Light that never fades away,
Guides my steps through night and day,
With every choice, I’ll stand and sing,
Jesus, my Savior, my everything!
(Chorus)
I chose the Light, oh, praise His name,
Out of the dark, His mercy came,
No more in chains, my soul takes flight,
Hallelujah, I chose the Light!
(Outro)
Yes, I chose the Light, and I’m free at last,
Shadows behind me, the future’s vast,
Forever I’ll shout with all my might,
Glory to God, I chose the Light!
