He Is No Fool

<p>I&#x27;ve lost track of all the Sundays<br/>The offering plates gone by<br/>And as I gave my hard earned dollars<br/>I felt free to keep my life<br/>I talk about commitment<br/>And the need to count the cost<br/>But the words of a martyr show me<br/>I don&#x27;t really know His cross<br/><br/>For he is no fool<br/>Who gives what he cannot keep<br/>To gain what he cannot lose<br/>Yes, he is no fool<br/>Who lays how own life down<br/>I must make this the path I choose<br/>Obedience and servanthood<br/>Are traits I&#x27;ve rarely shown<br/>And the fellowship of His sufferings<br/>Is a joy I&#x27;ve barely known<br/>There are riches in surrendering<br/>That can&#x27;t be gained for free<br/>God will share all heaven&#x27;s wonders<br/>But the price He asks is me<br/><br/>For he is no fool<br/>Who gives what he cannot keep<br/>To gain what he cannot lose<br/>And he is no fool<br/>Who lays how own life down<br/>I must make this the path I choose<br/>I must make this the path I choose
