Artist/Band: George Jones
Lyrics for Song: If You Want to Wear a Crown?
Lyrics for Album: How Beautiful Heaven Must Be [Direct Source] [2005]



You've got to run to win the race

Go along the way and quick the pace

So remember when you're worried faith is fallin' down

That you got to bear a cross if you want to wear a crown.



Our Lord is testing us each day

He'll try us out in every way

So don't dispair when burdens fall around

You got to bear a cross if you want to wear a crown.



--- Instrumental ---



We've seen some men rise to the top

Then fall apart if they should drop

They can't live on without their wealth

They blame the Lord above and they never blame themselves.



Out of these fallen some will rise

Accept their fate and realize

That their own trial to God they'll hear the trumpet sound

That you got to bear the cross if you want to wear a crown...
