Crown

Music and Lyrics by Jeff Sutter

 

The crowd is drawing near

 

Another wound is what I take

 

Condemning words are all I hear

 

This cross I bear I won't forsake

 

Another beating from the crowd

 

Will my run turn into a crawl

 

Their screams have grown so loud

 

Will You hold me if I fall

 

 

CHORUS:

 

Standing in this holy war

 

For their souls I'm fighting for

 

Darkness will never keep me down

 

Running towards my heavenly crown

 

 

 

They wear an idol of gold

 

I'll wear His crown of thorns

 

I struggle in these dark strongholds

 

Between my flesh and spirit I'm tom

 

I can see their souls in pain

 

I can see their tear filled eyes

 

Will they accept the Word I proclaim

 

Now I cry as one passes on by
