Ten Thousand Miles
Newsboys · Hell Is For Wimps [1990]
And we have known what it is to have plenty
There are costs that we all must pay
For some ist harder harder for them to stay
Chorus
I will live for you
I'll walk with you I'd even die for you
I will follow you ten thousand miles
Ten thousand more
For I have seen a vision of heaven
And we are here for just a short lived time
No time to chase the gold, the glory
There is a fire, fire in our hearts
- Chorus -
We have learned a valuable secret
To be content in every situation
We can do everything through Him
He gives us strength to, strength to
- Chorus
