Song Story: THE LYRICS:
The song lyrics were written in moments at the altar ....
The music pattern developed as I searched for “heavenly” guitar chords while looking up from under God's huge trees one warm February afternoon.
This has become one of my favorite "worship solo" songs to sing.
It was written to comfort people who cannot quite believe that,
in John 3:16, GOD really means THEM, chosen by God to be His loved one.
Concept: We blithely, unthinkingly let John 3:16
“roll of our tongues” if we've heard it a lot.
Many of us can quote it while thinking about what we'd like to go get for lunch. I'd been praying for a song especially to help people who don't think they're “worthy” of God to realize that God chooses them anyway. (Not one of us is “worthy” of God.)
I'd also been doing a lot of Old Testament studies along with James 2:5 and Romans 11, which show that indeed, God chooses all. As Second Peter 3:9 says,
God wants ALL people to be saved.
And thus these simple song words “just came” to me as I thought of the amazement: God --Who Created All --loved and chose us even before we knew He exists (I John 4: 9-10).
WARNING: God's love does not "save you from hell."
Deuteronomy 30: 14 on "But the word [is] very near you, in your mouth and in your heart, that you may do it. 16 "See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil,... 17 But if your heart turns away so that you do not hear, and are drawn away, and worship other gods and serve them, "I announce to you today that you shall surely perish..."
God's love offers you the way OUT of hell...
see Romans 10: 9 prayer to be saved by accepting the price Jesus paid for your sins....
but your destination of LIFE with God or hell after you die
(and there's a 100% chance you will die unless Jesus returns soon)
is YOUR choice.
God chose you. But -- Deuteronomy 30:19,
God begs you to choose Life by choosing Jesus as your LORD.

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
“In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. .” --First John 4: 9-10 NKJV
2nd Peter 3:3 and on: "....knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they were] from the beginning of creation." ...But the heavens and the earth [which] are now preserved by the same word [Genesis 1], are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men....
10- But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
GOD CHOSE YOU IN HIS LOVE TO RECEIVE HIS OFFER OF
THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID HELL.
DEUTERONOMY 30:19.... The choice is now yours whether to pray Romans 10:9
and accept God's Gift of life.
(Why is Jesus the only way to know God? Because Jesus *IS* God.
Simple logic --- YOU are the only person who knows YOU, right? Same for God. Logic.)
