Looked down at the world below
The distance world where sin's strong arm
Struck a favourable 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 that leads resistance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
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'll walk 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 that leads 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 that leads resistance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
The father and the son step down Looked down at the world below The distance world where sin's strong arm Struck a favourable 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 that leads resistance Father I will take the cross I will go the distance 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'll walk 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 that leads 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 that leads resistance Father I will take the cross I will go the distance Father I will take the cross I will go the distance Explain Request ×
