Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Seasons will change, colors will fade

But I know that You remain

If the road changes course, my compass, Your voice

And You will not leave me somewhere You've never been


'Cause You go before me, You lead the way

If You say to follow, I won't be afraid


Jesus, it's an honor to cast down these crowns

What a privilege to lay my life down

'Cause I know that all that I've gained will fade

But You will remain


No one can steal what I've given away

And I can't out-give all that You gave

And no song I could sing is worth this robe and this ring

But I'm gonna sing it anyway


'Cause Jesus, what an honor to cast down these crowns

It's a privilege to lay my life down

'Cause I know that all that all I've gained will fade

But You will remain

And these treasures that life seems to bring

They mean nothing if You're not with me

'Cause I know that all I have gained will fade

But You will remain

You will remain

You will remain

You will remain


'Cause when I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to praise

'Cause when I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to praise, to praise

'Cause when I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to raise

'Cause when I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to raise


Jesus, what an honor to cast down these crowns

It's a privilege to lay my life down

'Cause I know that all I've gained will fade

But You will remain

And these treasures that life seems to bring

They mean nothing if You're not with me

'Cause I know that all I've gained will fade


When I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to praise

'Cause when I see your face, I wish I'd given more away

So don't let me waste a trial, don't let me miss the chance to praise
