To choose life is an act of courage
I Choose Life

I choose life
When I stay calm instead of panic
To be still and quiet in the midst of inner chaos
Feel the crushing pain all over me

I choose life
When I wake up looking up instead of looking down
Focus on the light and what is alive
Let go of fears crippling my insides

I choose life
When I lift my hands in prayer instead of give up
Believe in the power of goodness and hope
That nothing is lost as long as there’s breath

I choose life
When I consider trials as second chances to grow
Count the blessings and make my heart sing
Find strength in love that conquers evil

I choose life
When I come in openness and humility
Ask for unconditional forgiveness and healing
Welcome a brand new start

I choose life
A leap of faith
A love in action
An act of courage
