Every step I take I know I'm drawing nearer
For the thoughts of worldly wealth mean less each day
The things I used to think were so important
Now they seem to just be in the way
I'm so glad He offered all of us salvation
For we'd have no hope if He had not come down
He sees each and every heartache
Every burden that we carry
And He whispers soon you'll trade them for a crown
Though the road is long and hard
And I may stumble
And the world claims victory
When I am down
But through it all I'm still clinging
To the promise
For every cross there is a crown
The decisions yours be careful how you make it
There's a choice to make and you must take a stand
There are million souls who die without salvation
And they would trade the world away for one more chance
The greatest miracle taken for granted
Was the Son of God has died for you and me
And though the world tries to ignore Him
I will shout how I adore Him
Though the devil rages Jesus Ill believe
Though the road is long and hard
And I may stumble
And the world claims victory
When I am down
But through it all I'm still clinging
To the promise
For every cross there is a crown
Though the road is long and hard
And I may stumble
And the world claims victory
When I am down
But through it all I'm still clinging
To the promise
For every cross there is a crown
But through it all I'm still clinging
To the promise
For every cross there is a crown
A crown
