To carry this cross
What if he said take up your cross and follow me?
Do you think you would? Do you think you would?
What if it costs you Everything?
Do you think you would? Do you think you would?
Leave behind your home,Your structure, Your family
Leave behind all things familiar,to follow only one certainty-
The call of a king, the call of a King
To take up the cross,and give up everything....
Its not so easy, but the words come cheap, To say I'll follow
Not really perceiving the costs, but for all that is a loss
Still I see you God, your love propells me,heavy
To carry this cross, To carry this cross
I know you'll help me Jesus, my burdens bare
I know where ever I go my Jesus
You will be there, you will be there
So the wood is on my back, the wounded hearts I see
Father its your blood that shows me
The grace that I need to bring, to others bring
What if it cost you Everything? Do you think you would, Do you think you would?
Ah but if I can stand before my King, and hear him say I did Good,
I think I would, I think I would, carry the cross, carry the cross,I think I would....
