Well, I pledge my head to heaven for the Gospel
And I ask no man on Earth to fill my needs
Like the sparrow up above, I am enveloped in His love
And I trust Him like those little ones, He feeds

Well I pledge my wife to heaven, for the Gospel
Though our love each passing day just seems to grow
As I told her when we wed, I'd surely rather be found dead
Than to love her more than the one who saved my soul

I'm your child, and I want to be in your family forever
I'm your child, and I'm going to follow you
No matter whatever the cost, I'm gonna count all things lost

Well I pledge my son to heaven for the gospel
Though he's kicked and beaten, ridiculed and scorn
I will teach him to rejoice, and life a thankful praising voice
And to be like Him who bore the nails and crown of thorns

I'm your child, and I want to be in your family forever
I'm your child, and I'm going to follow you
No matter whatever the cost, I'm gonna count all things lost
Oh no matter whatever the cost, I'm gonna count all things lost
Well I've had the chance to gain the world, and to live just like a king
But without your love, it doesn't mean a thing

Oh no matter whatever the cost, I'm gonna count all things lost
Oh no matter whatever the cost, I'm gonna count all things lost
Well I pledge my son, I pledge my wife, I pledge my head to heaven
I pledge my son, I pledge my wife, I pledge my head to heaven, for the gospel
