Second Mile Lyrics
Matt 5:38-42, I Pet 1;22, Matt 10:42
Verse 1: A single mom on the back row at a church outside of town No one sits beside her her kids are kind of loud She never misses a Sunday she does the best she can Faith gives her the strength she needs to stand
Verse 2: It's Monday morning her telephone rings When She finally answers I begin to speak My kids they know your kids from Sunday school they say We wanted to know can your kids come and play
Chorus: The second mile may be as simple as a smile For a brokenhearted mother and a fatherless child The second mile it starts with just one step With the Father's help, we give ourselves And we go the second mile
Verse 3: You pass his house every morning He sits there all alone He rarely leaves that front porch Since his wife's been gone 85 last Friday There were no balloons or cake What a difference some time with you could make
Chorus: The Second mile may be as simple as a smile For a brokenhearted husband who's been alone for awhile The second mile starts with just one step With the Father's help we give ourselves
Bridge: The greatest love that ever was Walked the longest road When His Spirit lives in us We have no choice we must go The Second Mile The Second Mile
Outro-The Second Mile it starts with just one step With the Father's help we give of ourselves and go the second mile Tag- My kids they know your kids from Sunday School they say (the second mile) 85 last Monday with no balloons or cake (the second mile)...
