The father and the son stepped out
|
Looked down at the world below
|
A distant world where sin-strong arms
|
had struck a fatal blow
|
There had to be a sacrifice
|
Across a lonely hill
|
Someone had to span the globe
|
So Jesus said I will
|
|
I will go the distance
|
I will go that far
|
I will give up everything to bring them where you are
|
Eventhough I could choose the path of least resistance
|
Father I will take the cross
|
I will go the distance
|
|
To think about his sacrifice
|
Leaves me with a choice to make
|
So many stand just out of reach
|
With eternity at stake
|
I can be the go-between
|
Who walks the extra mile
|
If just one should find their way
|
Then it's been worth the while
|
|
I will go the distance
|
I will go that far
|
I will give up everything to bring them where you are
|
Eventhough I could choose the path of least resistance
|
Father I will take the cross
|
I will go the distance
|
|
I will go the distance
|
I will go that far
|
I will give up everything to bring them where you are
|
Eventhough I could choose the path of least resistance
|
Father I will take the cross
|
I will go the distance
|
|
Father I will take the cross
|
I will go the distance
|

I Will Go The Distance
