Choosing

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
