For the Cause (Official Lyric Video) - Keith & Kristyn Getty

For the Cause

For the cause of Christ the King
We give our lives, an offering
’Til all the earth resounds
With ceaseless praise
To the Son

For the cause of Christ we go
With joy to reap, with faith to sow
As many see
And many put their trust in the Son

CHORUS
Christ we proclaim,
The Name above every name:
For all creation,
Ev’ry nation,
God’s salvation
Through the Son!

For the King once lifted high
To cries of rage, of ‘crucify!’
Endured the cross
As every sin was laid
On the Son

To the King who conquered death
To free the poor and the oppressed
For lasting peace
For life and liberty
In the Son

CHORUS

Let it be my life’s refrain:
To live is Christ, to die is gain;
Deny myself, take up my cross
And follow the Son

CHORUS

Nice song exhorting the church to proclaim THE SON. Superb tune. May God use you guys to help many believers worship God through biblically sound songs.

Wonderful song, thank you! Could you please make the lyrics come up before they need to be sung, though? Very difficult to sing along if you don't know the words. Thanks!

[Psalmv]

Such a beautiful song. Thank you. 🙏🏼🎼✡

If the cost of the forgiveness of your sins is too precious - The Blood and Life of the Lord Jesus, are you just going to live your life - deliberately keep on sinning ?
Are you just going to use The Gift of Righteousness that you received to indulge in the flesh - gratifying your evil desires? If this is your lifestyle, you become an enemy of God and when you die without turning to God in repentance, this is what you are going to hear from the Lord Jesus, "Away from Me you, evildoer, I do not know you.
