LYRICS: Sunnypraise Adoga – Take Up Your Cross (For The Joy Of Our Salvation) (+ Song Mp3 Audio)
[Intro]
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
[Verse 1]
Wide is the road
Do you, do you know that wide is the road
The road that many people go
That road that many people wanna go
The road that many people always wanna go
Wide is the road
Narrow is the road that leads to life
If you ever wanna see the Most High
Who sits far above the high sky
Who is clothed with the brightest light
You gotta choose the narrow road that leads to life
You gotta choose the narrow road that leads to life
You gotta choose the narrow road that leads to life
The narrow road is full of tribulation
The narrow road is full of rejection
The narrow road is full of trials
But it leads to the kingdom
Many are they who wanna go into God’s kingdom
Everybody wanna go into God’s kingdom
If you ever wanna go into God’s kingdom
Then take up your cross
And follow the Saviour of the world
[Chorus]
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
[Verse 2]
What shall it profit a man to gain the world
And suffer the loss of his own soul
What shall it profit a man who doesn’t know the Lord
Even if all the world were his own
Though there be abundant pleasures in this world
It’s nothing compared to our home above
What shall it profit a man to gain the world
And suffer the loss of his own soul
What shall it profit a man who doesn’t know the Lord
Even if all the world were his own
Though there be abundant pleasures in this world
It’s nothing compared to our home above
The treasures of heaven
Peace passes understanding
We’re gonna be standing
Before His majesty
The treasures of heaven
Peace passes understanding
We’re gonna lift our hands and worship before His majesty
The treasures of heaven
Peace passes understanding
We’re gonna be standing
Before His majesty
The treasures of heaven
Peace passes understanding
We’re gonna lift our hands and worship before His majesty
[Chorus]
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
[Bridge]
We must through much tribulation
Enter into the kingdom
Wide is the road to damnation
Narrow is the way of the kingdom
The trouble of this present ages
Is nothing compared to the hope in Jesus
We must through much tribulation
Enter into the kingdom
Wide is the road to damnation
Narrow is the way of the kingdom
The trouble of this present ages
Is nothing compared to the hope in Jesus
[Chorus]
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
Take up your cross the Saviour said
If you would my disciple be
Take up your cross with willing heart
And humbly follow after me
