[00:08.64] Well, I've sacrificed time with family and friends
[00:13.02] Gave up vacations for work without end
[00:17.45] 24/7, 365
[00:21.27] But I was willing to make the sacrifice
[00:25.09] .
[00:25.65] But empty or full, I've carried my pale
[00:29.84] You don't drink the water if you don't dig the well
[00:33.89] Through blood sweat and tears I have built a good life
[00:38.32] But it didn't come without sacrifice
[00:41.88] .
[00:42.25] But I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost
[00:46.57] And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost
[00:50.76] All through the years I kept my eye on the prize
[00:54.94] You ask if it's worth the sacrifice, the sacrifice
[01:01.94] .
[01:07.82] I think about Jesus and all that he gave
[01:11.88] And the ultimate sacrifice that He made
[01:16.32] He is my strength and my guiding light
[01:20.18] And He's taught me that nothing's without sacrifice
[01:23.71] .
[01:24.28] I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost
[01:28.90] And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost
[01:33.14] I wanted success and, brother, I've paid the price
[01:37.34] And, yes, it's been worth the sacrifice, the sacrifice
[01:45.14] .
[01:58.36] I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost
[02:02.67] And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost
[02:06.92] Grindstones and rhinestones have made up my life
[02:10.80] But I've shined like a diamond through sacrifice
[02:14.61] .
[02:15.05] I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost
[02:19.55] And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost
[02:23.86] But I hope God will tell me, "Well done, my child
[02:27.98] You've won your reward through your sacrifice, the sacrifice"
[02:36.42] .
[02:40.23] The sacrifice
[02:48.98] But sometimes I wonder in the still of the night
[02:53.23] Is it really worth the sacrifice
[02:58.11]
[03:06.32] I've often laughed and I've often cried
[03:10.38] I've often failed but I've always tried
[03:14.57]
[03:18.15] I made the sacrifice
[03:20.09] .
[03:20.59]
