Take Up Your Cross Songtext
von Ray Boltz

Take up your cross and follow Jesus
Take up your cross everyday
Don′t be ashamed to say that you know Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him (Mm, yeah)

I wanna talk to you for a minute now
What are you doin' for the King
Have you really given everything
For the One who gave His own for you

Don′t you be satisfied just to know
That the Lord has saved your soul
Have you forgotten what you need to do

Take up your cross and follow Jesus
Take up your cross everyday
Don't be ashamed to say that you know Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him


Take up your cross (Just take up your cross)
And follow Jesus (Follow Jesus)
Take up your cross (Oh, take up your cross)
Everyday (Everyday)
Don't be ashamed to say that you know Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him

Oh yeah
Ooo

I said, I know sometimes
That the road is long
And I know sometimes
It feels like you can′t go on
But you can make it, you just

Take up your cross (Ooo)
And follow Jesus (He′s gonna be there)
Take up your cross (Oh, yes He is)
Everyday (Everyday)
Don't be ashamed to say that you know Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him


Take up your cross (I have decided)
And follow Jesus (Lord, no turning back)
Take up your cross (Ooo)
Everyday (Everyday)
Don′t be ashamed to say that you know Him
Count the cost then take up your cross
And follow Him

Take up your cross (Just take up your cross)
And follow Jesus (You've got to follow the Savior)
Take up your cross (Ooo)
