I Still Would Have Chosen You

"If before you were born, I could have gone to heaven and saw all the beautiful souls, I still would have chosen you... 

If God had told me, "This soul would one day need extra care and needs," I still would have chosen you...

If He had told me, "This soul may make your heart bleed," I still would have chosen you... 

If He had told me, "This soul would make you question the depth of your faith," I still would have chosen you...

If He had told me "This soul would make tears flow from your eyes that could fill a river," I still would have chosen you... 

If He had told me "This soul may one day make you witness overbearing suffering," I still would have chosen you...

If He had told me, "All that you know to be normal would drastically change," I still would have chosen you... 

Of course, even though I would have chosen you, I know it was God who chose me for you."
