Called to suffer long
In the likeness of the King
And imitate His love
By giving everything
Too many of us live
For all that we can get
The words of life say sacrifice
With all that we can give
I know that it's not easily done
I know that it's a war
To simply live in holiness
And look for nothing more
Sacrificing love
Sacrificing love
Don't let our lives be safe and nice
Help us not to compromise
Sacrificing love
Sacrificing love
Don't let our lives be safe and nice
Lord we need your sacrificing love
The breaking of our will
Over sin that's unconfessed
To let the Spirit fill
When our nature would resist
The breaking of our hearts
To lay our comfort down
Giving up our selfishness
That one more might be found
