"MILLION MILES"
"Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his
son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and
follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his
life for my sake will find it." - Matthew 10:37-39
"The words were written in a Hardee's parking lot. I had been trying to make a left turn at a busy intersection and couldn't get out. So I turned right, drove a block, and turned around in the first drive I could find, which was the Hardee's parking lot. All so I could go a few feet from where I had been in the first place. That's where the line "a million miles out of the way" came from. Honest.
I can't remember why we changed the arrangement on Door, but I like this one better. I like the dominance of the acoustic guitar in this version. It features some of Mark's best 12-string work, too."
The potter makes the vessel out of clay
He fills it up and carries it away
He tilts the jar and lets the contents spill
Lord, fill me up and pur me where You will
I'd go a million miles out of my way for You
If You want me to, if You want me to, if You want me to
I would die for You
It's love, not fear that's motivating me
Your humble servant waiting patiently
Nothing You ask could ever be denied
'Cause it should have been me that was crucified
I'd go a million miles, million miles
Million miles out of my way for...
I'd go a million miles out of my way for you
