That's why our choice to worship is so important. If we worship because we have to, where is the love? God and us get no pleasure out of that kind of worship. Many of us have experienced the pleasure of worship done in love and it's a priceless treasure. That's the background behind the words in the second section of the song. One day the choice will be gone. Everyone will be overpowered and fall to their knees and 'worship' with their bodies, but not with their hearts of love. The greatest treasure I am referring to is not heaven in some theological or future sense (though I totally believe in the reality of heaven!); instead, it's the gift of knowing and loving God...choosing to worship God out of love...and experiencing the pleasure of being with God and being in His presence. Of course all those things will be experienced in heaven, but the goal isn't to get into heaven in that sense; the goal is to be with God or to get heaven (the pleasure of worship) into us.

The "new" words on the "You Shine" recording ("Willingly we choose...") are actually the original words that were edited out just before the initial recording of the song in the spring of 98 in London. The words are a response to the greatest command in scripture. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength" (Mark 12:30).
