Strongarm - Count the Cost lyrics

count yourselves worthy to suffer loss brought down held back marvel not that the world hates you if you were of it it would hold you high but as it hated Christ it hates those that follow him not withholding pride not withstanding right unashamed we rise to the name of Christ keep yourselves pure for the renewing of your minds to be a light in deed and word for this is life for this is love abiding in the will of the Father count the cost suffering all lost in the name of Christ take up your cross looking to that which is unseen to our eternal hope not moved by the things of this world our redemption draws near the end is in sight hold true Christian brethren to these promises of life
