Second Mile
Seventy
times around the sun, Then my life is gonna be done, yeah! I don't want to wake
up someday, Thinking I threw my life away. Yeah! Oh no! The road I take to heaven,
Just might save someone from hell I don't want to just run the race, I want to
run it well.
Chorus: I want to go, I want
to go, Go the second mile, I want to go the second mile (repeat).
I don't want to just survive, I'm gonna make a difference with my life. Yeah!
When the road gets rough I pray, Lord don't let me fade away, fade away. I've
waited for my moment, And I know that this is it. I don't care what time it is,
It's much too soon to quit. (Repeat Chorus)
Bridge: (soft, poignant-segues into joyous chorus)
Why
should I go the extra distance? The answer's easy to see. Someone went a long
way, Out of his way, When He died for you and me Oh don't you see, He died for
you and me Seventy times around the sun Then my life is gonna be done…. (repeat
chorus)
Hook: Can't stay gotta go, Don't you
know, So here I go Can't stay gotta go, I gotta go, The second mile, The second
mile.
