Go the extra mile

He Walked A Mile
Before the threads of time began

Was pre-ordained a mighty plan

That I should walk with Him alone

The cords of trust unbroken
But fate foresaw my wandering eye

That none could yet restrain

To violate the friendship

I Would cause Him so much pain

And everytime I close my eyes

I see the nails, I hear the cries
He did not keep Himself away

He was no stranger to my pain

He walked a mile in my shoes

He walked a mile

Feet so dusty cracked with heat

But carried on by love's heartbeat

A man of sorrows filled with grief

Forgiveness was His anthem
No feeble blow from tongue or pen

Could ever sway my love for Him

Across the echoed hills

He trod And reached into my world.
