The Second Mile

Like a Texas wind that blows in springtime In the morning sun I feel it grow The ever restless spirit of the Lord Moving through my soul Calling me to go the distance Where love demands a higher price Fields of white are burning for the harvest On the second mile Far away To new frontiers and places Where we've never dared before Someone is cryin' Someone is dyin' Somewhere down the road Where I have yet to go I stand upon a lonely hillside I close my eyes and Lord, I see Every extra step of love You took to rescue me And I ride upon Your strength and courage For every step of faith I need To reach a world that's waiting for love On the second mile Far across The borders of a nation Or to a neighbor next door Someone is cryin' Someone is dyin' Somewhere down the road Where I have yet to go Somewhere down the road On the second mile Far away To new frontiers and places Where we've never dared before Someone is cryin' Someone is dyin' Somewhere down the road Where I have yet to go Like a Texas wind that blows in springtime In the morning sun I feel it grow The ever restless spirit of the Lord Call it be the second mile
