Beyond The Second Mile Lyrics by Caedmon

Caedmon

0

When the night falls in the autumn
And the man comes for your cloak
And there's wrath lining his visage
Then give him the use of your coat
When the travelling man is a tyrant
And the martyr’s no more than a slave
Then take all his love and go
Beyond the second mile
When the man lies chill in the winter
And your coat hangs warm on your back
Then give him the use of your armour
And your master will give it you back
When the travelling man is a martyr
And the tyrant's no more than a slave
Then take all his love and go
Beyond the second mile
When the sun sank in the autumn
And the snow stayed high in the sky
In the cold and the dark of the winter
Then I saw you had reason to die
Though to me, you seemed more than a martyr
To the night, you were less than a slave
And we took all your love and you walked
Beyond the second mile
With the dawn, from the night came the springtime
And the summer, the bud of a rose
And the man has a hope for the autumn
With a love more than anybody knows
And we'll walk hand in hand with the martyr
And the tyrants are free to be slaves
And we’ll take all his love and we'll go
Beyond the second mile
