CHOOSING
133
VERSE 1
Oh Lord I see many beautiful girls
They are everywhere in the church
To my left and to my right, they are so nice
How can I know? Whom shall I choose?
VERSE 2
I can hear a voice behind me saying
This is the way, walk ye in it
Don’t turn to the right, don’t turn to the left
I am waiting till he speaks to me
CHORUS
I want to choose, I want to move on
Looking for a wife, whom shall I choose?
Someone to be with for the rest of my life
Who will it be, whom shall I love
Oh God help me
VERSE 3
If I hearken to the voice of the Lord
He will lift me up higher and higher
He that believeth shall not make haste
I have need of patience to do his will
VERSE 4
I must not be taken with her beautiful smile
I must not be taken with her beautiful face
That flowing hair may be much shorter
That gentle voice may not be so gentle
CHORUS
I want to choose, I want to move on
Looking for a wife, whom shall I choose?
Someone to be with for the rest of my life
Who will it be, whom shall I love
Oh God help me
INTERLUDE
VERSE 5
I shall not be led by what I see
I shall not be led by how I feel
I shall be led by the Holy Spirit
I don’t want my heart to be broken
VERSE 6
All the shapes and all the curves that I see
May not be what I think they are
He will lead me to green pastures
As for me, I will trust in the Lord
CHORUS
I want to choose, I want to move on
Looking for a wife, whom shall I choose?
Someone to be with for the rest of my life
Who will it be, whom shall I love
Oh God help me
