You’re chosen. You’re special. You’re part of God’s plan—
Not just any creature, but of his royal clan.
In a joyful parade with a heavenly call,
You stand in a place that’s the best of them all.
God took you from the shadows and darkness of night,
And showed you the way to his marvelous light.
No longer lost in the gloomy dark gray,
He gave you a purpose, a bright shining way.
You’re not here by chance, like the flip of a dime,
But are lifted in love through the fabric of time.
A people unique have this message to shout:
“God’s mercy is real. He can bring you all out.”
Leap into his glory, and laugh with pure cheer,
The King of bright light has drawn you near.
Let the mountains sing praise and the seas all agree—
You once were in chains … but now you are free.
