He Chose Me

I am a tax collector, Zachaeus is my name I do what my father did, and his father the same A cheater, and a stealer, a traitor by trade The lowest of the low I'm afraid One day I heard the news He was passing by A man with healing in His touch and mercy in His eyes I climbed a sycamore to see if it was true And He said to me, I'm going home with you He chose me I can't explain it, do not understand about His grace Or why He loves me so But He chose me Out of all the others. I did not deserve it, could not earn it Just a sinner up a tree He chose me I am a simple beggar, and the world is not kind to a man with the circumstance of being born blind Useless and worthless, no future in sight No hopes, no dreams, just endless night Well I was begging in the city for I do what I must do When someone said that Jesus the Messiah was passing through He raised me to my feet, and with just a little clay He turned my night into the brightest day He chose me I cant' explain it, do not understand about His grace Or why He loves me so But He chose me Out of all the others. I did not deserve it, could not earn it A beggar waiting helplessly He chose me So many nights I've spent in fear of the morning Failure after failure leaves a life of guilt and shame Always searching for something to believe in That's when I heard Him call my name He called my name One day they took this Jesus to a place called Calvary And those same healing hands were nailed to a tree For a tax man, and a beggar, and a sinner such as I The lamb of God laid down His life He chose me I can't explain it, do not understand about His grace Or why He loves me so But He chose me Along with all the others. I did not deserve it, could not earn it Just a sinner up a tree, A beggar waiting helplessly, Someone like you, and like me He chose me
