Debby Boone - Choose Life lyrics

Be careful, be careful You could be entering the danger zone Appeared to be a good plan at the time Seemed so harmless, no big crime The choice was mine and I made it But I didn't choose life What I wanted was all I could see Desire dangled in front of me I lived on the brink of destruction 'Cause I didn't choose life While the truth comes to free you, to lift and console you Lies will cut you deeper than a two-edged knife When the wrong way that seems right begins to control you Don't let bad decisions make you pay the price Cut the power of d**h and choose life Each bad choice chipped away my soul Soon survival became my goal I ended up splitting up pieces 'Cause I didn't choose life The sound of judgement was hard to hear 'Til the facts came in loud and clear It's either one way or the other And I better choose life While the truth comes to free you, to lift and console you Lies will cut you deeper than a two-edged knife When the wrong way that seems right begins to control you Don't let bad decisions make you pay the price Cut the power of d**h and choose life Life Life Choose life What then will you choose? How much must you lose? Time is running out No longer able to slide by on foolish moves We're nothing more than lives of clay Formed by choices made yesterday It turns to mud if you let it So you better choose life Be sure that when you add up the score Life's columns add up to so much more 'Cause every single thing you do counts So you better choose life While the truth comes to free you, to lift and console you Lies will cut you deeper than a two-edged knife When the wrong way that seems right begins to control you Don't let bad decisions make you pay the price Cut the power of d**h -- choose life Choose life Cut the power of d**h (choose life) While the truth comes to free you, to lift and console you Lies will cut you deeper than a two-edged knife (choose life) When the wrong way that seems right begins to control you Don't let bad decisions make you pay the price Cut the power of d**h -- choose life
