Lyrics

Go The Distance

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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
