Deuteronomy 7

Passage: 6 “For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. 7 It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the LORD set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, 8 but it is because the LORD loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers…” (Deuteronomy 7:6–8 ESV) Song: Chosen by Alvymarie Rodriguez, Danielle Cruz, Jeffrey Todd McVicker, and Sean Hill Lyrics: How sweet it is to be loved by a King How kind it is to be called by Majesty How wonderful to fully know that I am Yours How can it be I am favored in Your eyes How can You see I'm a child of Your delight How beautiful to always know that I am Yours Oh I am Yours Oh I am chosen I am Yours Oh I am chosen I am Yours You call me out to be Your hands and feet For here and now a light for all to see I'll show Your love and tell the world That they are Yours Oh they are Yours Oh we are chosen we are Yours Oh we are chosen we are Yours Adorned in robes of royalty The Bride of Christ can stand and sing We're forever chosen We're forever chosen Hear the sound of people free Sing the song of the redeemed We're forever chosen We're forever chosen Hallelujah we are chosen we are Yours Hallelujah we are chosen we are Yours We're forever chosen We're forever chosen We're forever chosen We're forever chosen Prayer: Preserve your work, Lord. Guard the gift you have given even to those who pulled back. For I knew I was not worthy to be called your servant, but by your grace I am what I am… Amen. —Ambrose of Milan
