Backstory:
I wrote this song after having an experience and later sometime had a break down. I been recovering but I am not the same any more. I wanted to earn a degree but I was not able to complete a goal. I decided to go into metaphysics because I was songwriting and even tarot reading. I found out I am ordained minister with my degree. It was nothing mystical but a lot of teaching about Jesus. Many thought I was going to be something as a child because an experience. Older I got I figure it was a haunting and not me. I would like help writing it structure because I wrote how I felt. It just came to me when God forbid Adam and Eve out the garden cause the tree of life, no one had it. It's until Jesus carried the cross so we could have life. That's what the Christmas tree is all about during Christmas. Celebrating the one man who can help us have life after this life.
Lyrics:
He Gave Up His Crown For A Cross
By Sheryl Collins Roberson
CH:
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He carry my sins to Calvary,
outside Jerusalem's walls
So I can have a chance to live again
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He laid down his life,
for me to have it all
A real king that reign
Jesus still reign
V1:
Born in a manger so far away
Mary and Joseph travel outside Bethlehem
The wise men followed the star
The scriptures read of the king will be born that day
He will be the world judgment
Save all those who love God
CH:
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He carry my sins to Calvary,
outside Jerusalem's walls
So I can have a chance to live again
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He laid down his life,
for me to have it all
A real king that reign
Jesus still reign
Verse
A great Savior was He
Walked on water and taught of heaven
He healed the sick and rose the dead
Jesus calm and hushed the sea
Forgave all of ours transgression
Turn water to wine in Galilee
CH:
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He carry my sins to Calvry,
outside Jerusalem's walls
So I can have a chance to live again
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He laid down his life,
for me to have it all
A real king that reign
Jesus still reign
V3:
Christ asked why Father forsake me
He still carry the burdens with pain
That old rugged wooden cross symbols true life
He did not run from you or me
He wore the thorns as a crown not in vain
So everyone can have the tree of life you and me
CH:
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He carry my sins to Calvry,
outside Jerusalem's walls
So I can have a chance to live again
HE GAVE UP HIS CROWN FOR A CROSS
He laid down his life,
for me to have it all
A real king that reign
Jesus still reign
Jesus is the tree of life…………………………………………
