1 Oh, will you count the cost today?
Oh, will you leave your sinful way?
I will, I will.
Oh, will you bear the cross for Him?
Oh, will you start the prize to win?
I will, I will.

I’ll give up sin, the prize to win,
And meekly bear the cross for Him,
I will, I will.

And fight a starry crown to wear?
I will, I will. [Refrain]

And prove His mighty saving pow’r?

Despite what men and demons say?

The Rock of Truth and Corner Stone?
I will, I will. [Refrain]

Oh, will you speak and sing and pray?

And do His will as ’tis is heav’n?
