years ago

when i said i'll follow You

i didn't know

what it meant to

take my cross and go against the flow

to deny myself

to lose my life to gain it all



since i've learned

life's a battlefield

and i'm a soldier

when marching through

the evil under fire

You remain my shield

in my darkest hour

yes i know life ain't no bed of roses

so as i go i will hold to You again



Chorus:

from the mountain tops

to the depths of the sea

i will always trust in You

though the world may

label me a fool

i believe in You



now i know

a servant is no greater

than his master

people hated You and

mocked You with their laughter

to bear Yor name oh Lord

is my greatest honor

for my soul



You endured all the shame for Your love

help me stand until the end



Repeat chorus



some say i'm crazy

that i have no reason

to believe in You

the whole world can try to bring me down

but i'll stand on the promise

that no one can

take me away from You



Repeat chorus



John 15:18-21, Romans 8:38-39
