The Things We Choose
The Scriptures we have treasured
When days are glad and bright
Become a kind of lifeline
When day has turned to night.
The hymns we love so dearly
When things are going fine
Become a kind of anchor
When hope is on the line.
The friendships we have nurtured
When life is at its best
Become a kind of safeguard
When troubles bring a test.
The things we choose to dwell on
When everything is good
Are what we’ll have in trials –
Let’s choose the things we should.
