Lyrics What It Takes To Be a Savior - Jody McBrayer

Trade away your golden street, for a dusty road
Exchange your royalty to wear a sinner's crown
Leave your palace and your throne, for a cross that's not your own
Let shame replace the mercy you pour out
That's what it takes to be a savior
That's what it takes to be a king
What it means to sacrifice, to redeem and change a life
That's what it takes, that's what it takes to be a savior
Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh, oh, oh
Take the names and love the ones, with hammers in their hands
Hear the shouts of those who only mock your name
Feel the sudden sting of death, as you draw your final breath
To cry out to a God who's turned away
That's what it takes to be a savior
That's what it takes to be a king
What it means to sacrifice, to redeem and change a life
That's what it takes, that's what it takes Oh
Feel deceptions kiss upon your face
The agony within, that your heart breaks
As your eyes dim, just let life fade away
Then proof that you were God, and walk out of your grave
That's what it takes to be a savior
That's what it takes (to be a savior)
(That's what it takes) to be a king
Oh, what it means to sacrifice, to redeem and change a life
That's what it takes, that's what it takes
Oh, That's what it takes (to be a savior) to be a savior
(That's what it takes) That's what it takes to be a King
Oh, what it means to sacrifice, to redeem and change your life
That's what it takes, that's what it takes... to be a savior
Whoa, to be a savior
