"DESPISING THE SHAME"

p align="center" class="style22">Verse 1
I lived on a shelf just for my self & I've made merry,
And I have tried to seize the coolest breeze that could me carry.
Compromise had shut my eyes when I thought I was bluffing.
Fool! Instead of folding I was left there holding nothing.
Those that jeered & sneered is what I feared & most respected,
But now I've chosen God, & their applaud I've have rejected.

Chorus
Now I'm despising the shame,
That I receive in His name.
And aye, they call me profane,
I'm called by his name.
We're the same.

Verse 2
I will take this cross unto the lost & I will wear it,
The fire & the frost, I count the cost & I will bear it.
And I will bear the scorn that He has borne so undeserving,
As they call me the bastard of the Master that I'm serving.

Chorus
Now I'm despising the shame,
That I receive in His name.
And aye, they call me profane,
I'm called by his name.
We're the same.

Bridge
He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep
to gain what he cannot lose.
(He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep
to gain what he cannot lose.)
I dare to bear the wrath with they
Who live to laugh another day.

Chorus
I'm despising the shame,
That I receive in His name.
And aye, they call me profane,
I'm called by his name.
We're the same.
