I’m glad I counted the cost.

I’ve paid the price and obtained the prize,
He saved my soul that was lost;
And now my treasures are in the skies;
I’m glad I counted the cost.
2 I laid my sorrows at Jesus’ feet,
I’m glad I counted the cost;
And now I’ve pleasures so pure and sweet,
I’m glad I counted the cost. [Refrain]
3 I’ve bid farewell to this world of sin,
I’m glad I counted the cost;
And now my Jesus abides within,
I’m glad I counted the cost. [Refrain]
4 Although the trials seem hard to bear,
I’m glad I counted the cost;
I now my burdens with Jesus share,
I’m glad I counted the cost. [Refrain]
5 ’Twill not be long till the Lord shall come,
I’m glad I counted the cost;
And bear my soul to that heav’nly home,
I’m glad I counted the cost. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: BERNAL HEIGHTS
