Winner take all

Winner take all

 

Take off all your enmity and put on the new man

To rise above all you possess and gain the eternal plan

The paradox is profound- the blind can see this light

So turn away from worldliness to see your wrong made right

 

To stand up we must bow our hearts To be lifted we must fall

The seed is buried in the earth to live up to its call.

 

Its not so wrong to want to win

If winningís not the only end

The bible makes it very plain

To live is Christ and to die as gain

 

You can overcome and never know defeat

And your victory canÝ be complete

He claims the prize and wins the greatest race

Is the one who dies in greatest debt to grace.

 

Oh to grace how great a debtor

Daily IÝ am constrained to be.
