Petra - Second Wind lyrics

Words and music by Bob Hartman

Long-distance run from darkness

Headed into the sun

And it seems like eternity

Till this race is won

Soul and spirit weak and weary

Strength was was almost gone

When a soothing gentle breeze carried me further on

(Chorus)

I've got my second wind, Spirit's coming again

I've got a new revelation from the King of Kings

Found my second wind, feel my strength returning again

Returning again

Through a desert night in darkness

Racing toward the light

There were too many hills to climb

And too many battles to fight

Then distant lights were calling

Beckoned me as a guest

When I found the oasis there

I entered into a rest

Just when I thought I couldn't run any longer

I got my second wind

Just when I thought I'd never be any stronger

I got my second wind

Just when I thought that I would fall into darkness

I got my second wind

Just when I thought that I would fail every test

I got my second wind
