[Verse 1] You saw the roads I never walked The doors I never tried The thousand ways a life could turn With one small choice inside You knew each branch before it grew Each answer I might give And still You made a world with room For me to choose to live [Chorus] The world where I said yes The road where I turned home The life where grace could call my name And I could answer on my own You never forced my hand You never loved me less Of every road that could have been This is the world where I said yes [Verse 2] You knew the nights I'd wrestle You knew the years I'd run You knew how long I'd argue With everything Your love had done But knowing isn't chaining And seeing isn't force You stood outside the doorway And let me choose the course [Chorus] The world where I said yes The road where I turned home The life where grace could call my name And I could answer on my own You never forced my hand You never loved me less Of every road that could have been This is the world where I said yes [Verse 3] Some mysteries stay mysteries No diagram makes clear How sovereign love can know the end And freedom still be here But I don't need to solve it To know what happened then You called me without crushing me And I could answer Him [Bridge] Not a puppet Not a pawn Not an accident of fate Love stood waiting At the threshold And did not drag me through the gate You knew my answer Before I spoke Still the answer became mine Your sovereignty did not erase The freedom of my reply [Verse 4] So when I look behind me At every crooked mile I see a God who knew the end And waited all the while Not helpless, not controlling Not threatened by my mess Just holding open mercy In the world where I said yes [Final Chorus] The world where I said yes The road where I turned home The life where grace could call my name And I could answer on my own You never forced my hand You never loved me less Of every road that could have been This is the world where I said yes [Outro] You called I heard You waited I said yes
