The Way

Don’t take the road that leads to shame...
Path of suffering and of trials;
It is long and lonely.
An eternity of miles.

I’ve given you My Word,
That it might give you light;
It will lead you where to go,
But by faith, not by sight.

I’ve seen too many people
Disobey My Law;
But I'm a merciful God,
And still carry their fall.

Beloved, do not be like them,
Who follow after sin;
It started in the garden,
And since, it's always been.

Death is knocking on your door,
But do not let it in;
I wrote My Word to save you
Because you're My friend.

Stay on the road that leads to Life...
Of perfect love and peace;
It is long and joyful,
Where gold streets never cease.
