The best choice

1. You are my most excellent portion
On You I will forever lay hold
The Excellency of Your Person!
Both my eyes will most gladly behold!
Not just for enjoyment that I am here
For discipline, intense breaking too
With vision clear, with You so near
O my Lord, oh until death ensue
I will remain though others treat me sore,
I dare not from You ask for more!

Chorus:
I made the best choice
When I said I love You!
Lord, You're my treasure of great value!
Now all things else mean absolutely nothing
Because to me, You are my everything!
My future, my life no longer my own,
All I present for Your recovery
Until the age's consummation,
Full-time lifetime, I will serve You!

2. Lord, I to Your demand say "Amen!"
Though my shameful weakness is exposed
I learned to put myself now to an end
In my ugly self no more I boast
I am not a fool, all good things I've known
Yet why am I still here pressing on?
Though I myself cannot apprehend,
On You I will rest, rely, depend,
Will not from You my heart ever sever
Yesterday, today, forever!
