Choose This Day

The trees are without blossom; no fruit is on the vine
The harvest we were counting on will not come in this time
No food is on the table; no water in the well
If we survive this famine, oh, the stories we will tell

We may be driven far away from here;
We may be tempted to hold on to fear
But when our dreams have all gone up in smoke,
We refuse to give up hope because...

CHORUS:
We will make our home wherever the Lord may lead
Serving Christ alone, we'll live as a family
There is hope in the place of catastrophe,
In what we choose this day

The sheep have all been scattered; my heart's an empty pen
The things that seemed to matter desert me once again
But looking to the future, discov'ring life anew
We're building on a fresh foundation, eternal, brave, and true

We may be driven far away from here;
We may be tempted to hold on to fear
But when our dreams have all gone up in smoke,
We refuse to give up hope because...
