I’m Glad That God Chose Me to Be Your Son
June 1985


“I’m Glad That God Chose Me to Be Your Son,” New Era, June 1985, 28–29

In Tune:

I’m Glad That God Chose Me to Be Your Son

In free, rhythmic style

1. You were there when I needed you to guide me.

When I stumbled, you were near to take my hand.

You were proud ev’ry time you walked beside me,

In a thousand ways I didn’t understand.

[Chorus:]

Oh, Dad, I never thought that I would ever find the words

to thank you for the many things you’ve done.

I want to say “I love you” from the bottom of my heart,

And I’m glad that God chose me to be your son.

2. (There were) times when I didn’t know the reasons,

When you stood by me and never asked me why.

As our moments melted softly into seasons,

I learn’d that I had wings enough to fly.

[Chorus]

Yes, I’m glad that God chose me to be your son.
