Russ Lee - The Second Mile lyrics

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 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 You pa** 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)'
