Lyrics Cory Asbury – Counted The Cost

I’ve counted the cost
I count it all as loss
For the sake of knowing You

I peel my hands away from earthly things

I’ve counted the cost
I count it all as loss
For the sake of knowing You

So until the day
When I’ll see You face to face
I’ll be taking up my cross

I say goodbye to my father, my mother
I cling to You and You alone I’ll have no other
God, this one thing I do, I leave it all behind
Cause’ You said if I searched then it’s You that I would find
I fight the fight of faith, I run the race
Just give me grace that I could seek Your face
So until the day that I die, I’ll be living my life
So in the end when You return I’ll obtain the prize

I’ve counted the cost
I count it all as loss
For the sake of knowing You

So until the day
When I’ll see You face to face

I lay it all down
That I’d be found
A pleasing sacrifice

‘Cause I’m living for another day
Yeah I’m living for another age
Your kingdom come on earth

One day He’s gonna’ split the sky and
One day He’s gonna’ come for His bride
I know it, I know it, I know it, oh, oh, oh, oh
x4

I’ve counted the cost
I count it all as loss
For the sake of knowing You

So until the day
When I’ll see You face to face
I’ll be taking up my cross
