In closing, we leave you with a powerful and challenging message from the late Keith Green,followed by,Pledge My Head to Heaven, from the new Keith Green collection,Make My Life a Prayer to You, Songs of Devotion.You know why I wrote this song?Because it was easy for me to give up my life,but to think of my wife and my children who I loved more than anything on the earth,to see them have to live in a different culture,or to see them have to be persecuted,or my wife beaten, or my son killed, was too much for me.Then the Lord had me put them on the altar like He had Abraham put Isaac on the altar.Ah, the thing that Isaac is famous for, being offered up by his father.Well, I pledge my wife to heaven for the gospel.Though our love each passing day just seems to grow,as I told her when we wed, I'd surely rather be found deadthan to love her more than the one who saved my soul.I'm your child, and I want to be in your family forever.I'm your child, and I'm going to follow you no matter whatever the cost.Well, I'm going to count all things lost.Well, I pledge my son to heaven for the gospel.Though he's kicked and beaten, ridiculed and scorned,I will teach him to rejoice and lift a thankful, praising voice.And to be like him who bore the nails and crown of thorns.I'm your child, and I want to be in your family forever.I'm your child, and I'm going to follow you no matter whatever the cost.Well, I'm going to count all things lost.Well, no matter whatever the cost.Well, I'm going to count all things lost.Well, I've had a chance to give the world, and it lived just like it came.But without your love it doesn't mean a thing.Oh, no matter whatever the cost.Well, I'm going to count all things lost.Oh, no matter whatever the cost.Well, I'm going to count all things lost.Well, I pledge my son, I pledge my wife, I pledge my head to heaven.I pledge my son, I pledge my wife, I pledge my head to heaven for the gospel.For the gospel.
