The father and the son step out
Looked down at the world below
The distance world where sin's strong arm
Had struch a favourable blow
There had to be a sacrifice
Across a lonely hill
Someone had to span the gulf
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 of least resistance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
To 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 of least 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 of least resistance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
Father I will take the cross
I will go the distance
