Have I loved enough, Have I denied myself? Have I ducked the responsibility That comes with so much grace? Is mine a cost worth counting? Is mine a cross worth lifting? Have I reduced my discipleship To a too comfortable pace? Lord, I'm tired of this highway With its crowded lanes and tolls to pay. Let me live your love without speed limits Along your narrow way.

Counting the cost
Have I loved enough, Have I denied myself? Have I ducked the responsibility That comes with so much grace? Is mine a cost worth counting? Is mine a cross worth lifting? Have I reduced my discipleship To a too comfortable pace? Lord, I'm tired of this highway With its crowded lanes and tolls to pay. Let me live your love without speed limits Along your narrow way.
