We’ve subways, highways, speedways too
Tunnels bridges galore
Somehow somewhere there’s someway new
Leading to Satan’s door
But who’ll seek out The Way on high?
Regardless of the strife
Who’ll walk the road where self must die?
Crossing The Bridge to life
Diversions are along The Way
Oft Barriers to climb
Yet not a toll has man to pay
But that he’s free of crime
A living stream is free to use
Refreshment can be won
Cleansing of that which man must lose
Before he travels on
The road is long the hour’s late
Most steps have lost their spring
Who’ll carry on through Heaven’s Gate?
Where Christ is Lord and King
No car can scale Salvation Heights
No train can find a rail
But those ordained for God’s delights
Will live and never fail
As old as hills yet fresh as dew
Is the path to The Lord
Though narrow yet its straight and true
That love can but afford
Reserved for sheep of Jesus’ fold
No beast is ever seen
And though it isn’t paved with gold
It leads to pastures green
