What Price

What price for a broken life
What price for the pain and strife
What price for wrong not right
Once more to choose
What price for a shattered dream
What price for a guilty stream
What price for all it seems you’ve gained
To lose
Round and round at love we try
And never do we once ask why
'Cause the one who loves us most stands by
With his arms wide open
But still we run around and round
Often with ours heads hung down
Because the love we’ve lost not found is gone
What price for another chance
What price for a true romance
What price for one last glance
Before goodbye
What price for a path unknown
What price for a seed not sown
What price for a child once grown
To leave your side
It’s more than you or I could pay
It’s more than words that we could say
It’s more than seconds in one day
Or in a million years
Round and round when will it end
The silly game of let’s pretend
Let’s try to stop and start again
Right here
The price was paid at Calvary
So you and I no more would be
Lost without a light to see
In darkness our way
But we must open both our eyes
To see that God is standing by
Still with arms stretched open wide for us
Today
What price for love
What price for us
He paid
