Verse 1
Down from His throne in heaven
Answering His Father’s call
To come save the lost and the broken
Jesus gladly paid it all
He knew He carried a calling
Even as a twelve year old boy
And knowing that it would be costly
Still He paid our ransom with joy
CHANNEL
Why would He choose to leave riches
To come as a sacrifice
He heard a lost world calling
And the calling has a price
CHORUS
Choosing purpose over possessions
And following destiny
To be a help for the hurting
And for the captive a key
He knew the end from the beginning
This calling would cost Him His life
He gladly answered ‘Lord, Thy will be done’
The calling has a price
VERSE 2
Can you hear the cry of the desperate
In your world of chaos and noise
Calling from their places of sorrow
Longing for one moment of joy
CHANNEL 2
(Will you) answer with reckless abandon
To follow the cause of Christ
Jesus and a lost world are calling
But the calling has a price
CHORUS
TAG
Saving a world isn’t easy
The calling has a price
