I love the lyrics to this song because it's completely relevant to the walk contemporary Christians have to walk. In our culture, we're trained to do what feels good (usually, conveniently, in terms of what our friends also happen to like) and challenge anything that's old and consequently in danger of being "outdated".
As the song points out though, there's nothing wrong with selling out your carnal desires for your Savior--nothing wrong with losing your "self" to be more like Him. Once we realize that, we gain the strength to face the embarrassment of a world that will ultimately always reject us for the sake of a King who will always stand by our side. :D
