There’s a line in the sand At the break of dawn Before the boots go on Before the day rolls on One road calls easy One road calls true One says live for yourself One says follow through Every thought every word Every door I walk through Got a shadow of death Or a light breaking through Lord You put it plain When You spoke that night I set it before you son Now choose life It ain’t always simple When the flesh gets loud When the crowd runs wild And the truth stands out But Heaven and earth Heard the words You gave Choose the narrow road Don’t walk toward the grave Choose life choose mercy Choose the cross and the crown Choose the hand that lifts you When the world knocks you down Choose truth when the lie Feels easier to believe Choose grace when your heart Wants to harden and leave Every moment is a mile Every day is a fight Death says come on But Jesus says choose life If you’re standing at the crossroads And you can’t see it right Take His hand Trust His word choose life Life can be so simple It gets complicated fast One little compromise Can wake up the past A look, a word, a drink A secret in the dark One wrong turn can Leave a scar upon the heart Sin never tells you where The road is gonna end It sells you chains And calls itself a friend But every choice away from Jesus leads to loss And every road back home Runs straight through the cross The wages of rebellion Are deeper than the grave Not just broken days But a soul that won’t be saved Lord keep my feet where Your mercy shines Because forever is hanging On these choices of mine Choose life choose mercy Choose the cross and the crown Choose the hand that lifts you When the world knocks you down Choose truth when the lie Feels easier to believe Choose grace when your heart Wants to harden and leave Every moment is a mile Every day is a fight Death says come on But Jesus says choose life If you’re standing at the crossroads And you can’t see it right Take His hand trust His word choose life Not just Sunday morning Not just when the music plays Not just when the storm is rising And I’m desperate for a change It’s a choice in the silence It’s a choice when nobody knows It’s a choice to leave the old man Buried in the grave clothes I choose the One who bled for me I choose the One who set me free I choose the Savior day and night Jesus by Your strength I choose life Choose life choose mercy Choose the cross and the crown Choose the hand that lifts you When the world knocks you down Choose Him in the morning Choose Him through the night Choose Him when it’s easy Choose Him when you fight There’s a heaven to gain And a hell to lose A loving Father calling Every soul to choose The road may be narrow But His Word is bright Jesus is the Way The Truth the Life So if you’re having trouble Let me say it straight tonight Turn to Him walk with Him Choose life The central message is clear The choice is not merely A one time decision ut a continual surrender to Jesus Life is found in Him Rejecting Him leads not only To temporary brokenness But eternal separation From the One who offers mercy Forgiveness and salvation
