Chosen by the fathers mercy
set apart to serve his son
Sanctified by his own spirit praise the holy three in one
Saved by reserection power shielded in his faithful love now no enemy can tarnish my enheratence above
I'm born again
I'm God's own chosen child of mercy born again what love and grace
Father keep me walking worthy till I look upon your face
Till I look upon your face
Led by wisdom into suffering
Grieved by many trials bellow
Yet rejoycing in his purpose that my faith has fully clothed
Granted faith for overcoming
Filled with love for Christ unseen
Even angles cannot fathom what salvation God will bring
I'm born again
I'm God's own chosen child of mercy
Born again what love and grace
Father keep me walking worthy till I look upon your face
Till I look upon your face
Built on Christ a sure foundation we are free from guilt and shame
He is fitting us together as a house to praise his name
We are chosen as God's people
Called from darkness into light
Oh what mercy now intreades us to proclaim his glorys loud
I'm born again
I'm God's own chosen child of mercy
Born again what love and grace
Father keep me walking worthy till I look upon your face




Till I look upon your face
Till I look upon your face
