Verse 1
I hear You calling, not from high above,
But in the everyday moments where we learn to love.
Not just to do what’s asked, not just what’s fair,
But to keep on walking when no one’s there.
I’ve learned the road gets narrow past the line,
Where comfort ends and compassion costs time.
But every step beyond what’s required
Feels like purpose catching fire.
Pre-Chorus
So I loosen my grip on what I claim,
Learning legacy is built in giving, not gain.
Chorus
A life well lived is the second mile,
Choosing grace when it’s not my style.
Showing up when it’d be easier to leave,
Loving deeper than convenience lets me.
It’s open hands and a servant’s heart,
Seeing the worth in every part.
I don’t wanna just pass through—
I wanna bless and serve like You.
Verse 2
I’ve seen the quiet ones change the day,
Never chasing credit, just making a way.
They listen longer, they carry the load,
They walk beside you down the hardest road.
It’s not the loud wins or the spotlight praise,
It’s faithfulness in ordinary days.
The more I give, the more I see
This is who You’re forming me to be.
Pre-Chorus
I’m not measuring life by what I keep,
But by the love I’m willing to give freely.
Chorus
A life well lived is the second mile,
Choosing mercy over denial.
Crossing the street, slowing my pace,
Making room for another face.
It’s open hands and a servant’s heart,
Seeing the worth in every part.
I don’t wanna just live for me—
I wanna bless and serve willingly.
Bridge
Love looks like time when I’m tired inside,
Looks like staying when I’d rather hide.
It’s giving more than what’s required,
Lighting hope where hearts are tired.
If this is the road You walked for me,
Then this is the road I choose willingly.
Final Chorus
A life well lived pours itself out,
Finds true joy beyond the doubt.
Step by step, I choose the way
That gives my life away each day.
With open hands and a servant’s heart,
I’ll love like this is where it starts.
I don’t wanna just make it through—
I wanna bless and serve… like You.
Outro
So if there’s a mile I didn’t plan,
I’ll walk it anyway, hand in hand.
Because a life well lived—
Is love that keeps going.
