The Choice

A                      C         D        G
See you at the airport See you on the street
See you at the market Wherever people meet

I pretend that I don’t see you          Pretend that I don’t know
But the world is getting ugly          And it worsens as it goes

Hear a knock on my front door      Are the jdubs back again
I can hide behind the curtains        Wouldn’t dare to ask them in

But the next day they come back   Will their efforts ever stop
Leaving tracts in every doorway    Like a farmer does a crop

===========================================
(Chorus)
                 A                  C                          D            F      G
Now I’ve never really asked them any questions
No I’ve never really listened to what they have to say
But something I read in the last tract they left me
I think I might stop to tell them that I don't think it's that way
==============================================
(lead over verses)

So I ready for the battle                 It's really got me irked
And I get up on my saddle            My soapbox is reserved

Then I hear that knock again         I’m all geared up for the war
But there peaceful mild spirit stops me short Can’t be angry anymore

And he opens up his Bible             And he tells me right away
I’m so glad I finally found you her at home Have you ever heard God’s name

And I can’t say that I have             So he reads it in my ear
Never knew my maker like that     And His name I can’t unhear
So I’m making preparation            Got my book marked at the Psalm
Chapter 83 verse 18                       As I pray to God for calm

Hear that same persistent knocking See the curtains slightly move
Leave a tract cuz there’s no answer Everyone must have a chance to choose
=======================================================
(chorus)
                A                  C                          D            F      G
Now I’ve never really asked them any questions
No I’ve never really listened to what they have to say
But something I read in the last tract they left me
Now I'm happy that I know my Creator has a name
=========================================================
