Have You Counted The Cost

 

 

 

 

 

There’s a line that is drawn

By rejecting our Lord

Where the call of His Spirit is lost

And you hurry along

With the pleasure mad throng

Have you counted

Have you counted the cost.

Chorus

Have you counted the cost

If your soul should be lost

Though you gain

The whole world for your own

Even now it may be

That the line you have crossed

Have you counted

Have you counted the cost?

You may barter your hope

Of eternity’s morn

For a moment of joy at the most

For the glitter of sin

And the things it will win

Have you counted

Have you counted the cost?

Chorus

Have you counted the cost

If your soul should be lost

Though you gain

The whole world for your own

Even now it may be

That the line you have crossed

Have you counted

Have you counted the cost?

While the door of His mercy

Is open to you

Ere the depth of His love

you exhaust

Won’t you come and be healed

Won’t you whisper, I yield

I have counted

I have counted the cost.

Chorus

Have you counted the cost

If your soul should be lost

Though you gain

The whole world for your own

Even now it may be

That the line you have crossed

Have you counted

Have you counted the cost?
