DOLLY PARTON - The Sacrifice lyrics

rate me

Well, I've sacrificed time with family and friends

Gave up vacations for work without end

24/7, 365

But I was willing to make the sacrifice

But empty or full, I've carried my pale

You don't drink the water if you don't dig the well

Through blood sweat and tears I have built a good life

But it didn't come without sacrifice

But I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost

And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost

All through the years I kept my eye on the prize

You ask if it's worth the sacrifice, the sacrifice

I think about Jesus and all that he gave

And the ultimate sacrifice that he made

He is my strength and my guiding light

And he's taught me that nothing's without sacrifice

I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost

And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost

I wanted success and, brother, I've paid the price

And, yes, it's been worth the sacrifice, the sacrifice

I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost

And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost

Grindstones and rhinestones have made up my life

But I've shined like a diamond through sacrifice

I was gonna be rich no matter how much it cost

And I was gonna win no matter how much I lost

But I hope God will tell me, 'Well done, my child

You've won your reward through your sacrifice, the sacrifice'

The sacrifice

But sometimes I wonder in the still of the night

Is it really worth the sacrifice

I've often laughed and I've often cried

I've often failed but I've always tried

I made the sacrifice
