When arrested, don't despair—
Make the guards wonder and stare
Fill the prisons with your prayers:
Walk another mile

And when the guns pound at the door,
Boots and blood upon the floor
Sing and pray, love even more: 
Walk another mile

CHORUS:
The eyes of God are watching;
The hand of God restores
He knows the miles you have been walking;
He will strengthen you to walk one more

Praise His great and awesome name; Holy is He
A lover of justice, the mighty King established equity
Righteousness and justice in Jacob He has achieved
Exalt the Lord our God, worship at His feet; Holy is He

Chorus:
The Lord reigns, let the peoples tremble
He is enthroned above the cherubim
Let the earth shake! God is great in Zion
Over all the nations exalt Him

My soul is full of trouble;
I am pulled towards the grave
On the list of doomed and dying,
Weak, forsaken, like the slain

Whom You pull your hand away from
And forget like faded paths
You have put me in the deepest,
Darkest pit beneath Your wrath

Chorus:
Lord, God of my salvation,
I call both day and night
Allow my prayer before You,
Tilt Your ear to hear my cry

(chorus)
How fragile my faith
How precarious my prayers
How daring my doubt
Following my footsteps
Just a breath in front of God

Twenty-seven years ago
I made a promise to the sky
Shaking my small fist at Him
I never needed so to cry
"You have never left me,
Never let me get away,
But I have never wanted You
To hold me, 'til today."

CHORUS
