Before You Wear The Crown

Before the crown we're called to wear
There is a cross that we must bear
Before He struggled up the Hill
He had to choose His Father's will

Before the victory was won
He had to say ' Thy will be done.'
And on the cross He did atone
But not before He prayed alone

If we desire to climb that hill
We must desire to do His will
For victory will not be won
Until we say ' Thy will be done.'

So if you will take up your cross
It'd serve you well to count the cost
For before He died to set you free
He died alone at Gethsemane
