The Road


The road to Heaven's gate is narrow,

and it's rocky and it's very rough.

You can't fly over it like a sparrow,

until you're made of the right stuff.



Now pilgrim hand-in-hand you walk,

this road from birth to Heaven's gate.

It's where Jesus listens to our talk,

and guides us each step we must take.



So don't look at the roadside snares,

where sin and glitter tempt your soul.

Just journey onward without earthly cares,

and Jesus will guide you to your goal.
