I Chose
Words and music by Ray Boltz
I chose my house and I chose my car
And I chose the strings on this guitar
And I chose to smoke that first cigar
All of these things
I chose
I chose the hat that's on my head
And the pillows on my bed
And I chose to eat what I was fed
Even though I wanted something else instead
But I didn't choose to be born in June
A baby boy with eyes of blue
I didn't choose the blood in my veins
My hometown or my last name
I didn't choose the way I feel
But I know its right and I know its real
Some things are a part of me
And other things
I chose to kneel and I chose to pray
That God would take all the pain away
And I chose to hide all the doubt and fear
I chose the path that brought me here
