Consider The Cost - Steve Camp

To obey is better than sacrifice

And the hearken than the fat of rams

For what will a man give for his own life

Houses or money or land

There’s a way that seems right to you

But in the end it leads only to death

But come unto Him all ye weary

Come and find your rest

Consider the cost of building a tower

It’s a narrow way that you must come

For to do the will of the Father

Is to follow the Son

To love Him more than father or mother

You will love Him more than even your own flesh

To give all that you are, for all that He is

This is the gospel according to Jesus

Many will say «Lord, Lord» on that day

Look what we’ve done in Your name

«Oh, we’ve prophesied and performed many miracles

And Lord, even the demons obeyed»

Then He will will declare unto them

The most terrifying words of truth

He’ll say «Depart from me ye workers of iniquity

For I have never known you!»

Consider the cost of building a tower

It’s a narrow way that you must come

For to do the will of the Father

Is to follow the Son

We love Him more than father or mother

We love Him more than even your own flesh

To give all that you are, for all that He is

This is the gospel according to Jesus

Oh, foolish man, how you built on the sand

Trusting in your goodness to save

For when the rains fall and the flood breaks the wall

You will be swept away

But blessed is he who builds on the Rock

Who takes Jesus as Lord to save

For when the rain falls, he will endure it all

Standing firm in His grace

Consider the cost of building a tower

It’s a narrow way that you must come

For to do the will of the Father

Is to follow the Son

We love Him more than father or mother

We love Him more than even your own flesh

To give all that you are, for all that He is

This is the gospel according to Jesus

To give all that you are, for all that He is

This is the gospel according to Jesus
