Verse 1
I prayed, I prayed, “Lord, I am weak” (II Cor. 12:9-10)
“How can I walk this road?” I said
But as I took the cross of pain (Matt. 10:38, Matt. 16:24, Mark 8:34, Mark 10:21, Luke 9:23)
I saw Your footprints up ahead (I Pet. 2:21)
Chorus
What I would go through every day and every hour (Phil. 3:7-8)
That I might know You in Your resurrection power (Phil. 3:10)
I’ll take this path although it brings
The fellowship of Your sufferings (Phil. 3:10)
Verse 2
You share, You share in every tear (Isa. 63:8-9)
In every pain and so much more
For every step You bid me take
Is on a road You’ve walked before (I Pet. 2:21, Heb. 4:15, Isa. 53:3, I Pet. 4:13)
Repeat chorus
Verse 3
I see, I see the prize ahead (Phil. 3:14, I Cor. 9:24, Heb. 12:2)
I won’t turn back, I won’t slow down (Phil. 3:13, Luke 9:62)
For if I hold the cross today (Matt. 10:38, Matt. 16:24, Mark 8:34, Mark 10:21, Luke 9:23)
Tomorrow I will hold the crown (Rom. 8:17, Rev. 2:10, II Tim. 4:8, James 1:12, I Pet. 5:4)
