To every life that comes to question of the heart
For extraordinary pain
Struggle greats you on the mountains that you climb
A war into the soul for every step you gain.
Remember when the winds of sorrow struck you down
And leave you hopeless and afraid
The proof of battle is the wounds that you will bear
The scars that built you strong for the journey that you make!

There's not a victory without a fight,
There's not a sunrise without a night,
There's not a purchase without a cause,
There's not a crown without a cross!
Uh, without a cross no, no, no!

The great anguish came upon a man
And when the Son of Glory died
The sins of all us were nails that pierced His hands
An act of sacrifice, the pain within the price!
His crown was smashed from His suffering and travail
Shone like the sun when He arose
And show us triumph even when the war was lost
He carried out a plan so that every man will know:

There's not a victory without a fight,
There's not a sunrise without a night,
There's not a purchase without a cause,
There's not a crown without a cross!

God will guide you when you cling to His hand
Strength will find you when you'll know how to stand
To persevere to the end!

There's not a victory without a fight,
There's not a sunrise without a night,
There's not a purchase without a cause,
There's not a crown without a cross!
Oh, and there's not a crown without a cross!
