The Narrow Road

There's a road that we must travel,
To reach that promised land...
It is a straight and narrow way,
Guided by God's own loving hand.

It leads through hills and valleys,
Over streams and desert's heat...
Through stormy days, and sunshine,
But never hate or deceit!

We may struggle through some potholes,
That snag us on our way,
But we learn patience and endurance,
Which holds our enemies at bay!

Jesus' way is truth and honor!
He brings great comfort to His own...
He leads each yearning heart,
Straight to God's majestic throne!

The warmth of God's Holy Son,
Will heal every grief and woe...
And we will spread the Good News,
Everywhere we go!

Wear truth as your mantle,
Walk that straight and narrow way!
And you will find life everlasting,
For which all Christians pray!

Wake up, O weary traveler!
Grab hold of Jesus' hand!
And journey on toward heaven,
The sought for promised land.

Hear the angels rejoicing,
As we enter heaven"s door...
To live with Christ forever,
Who could ask for anything more?

It gives me a warm feeling in my heart to write poetry.  I am a "Golden Ager" shut-in and writing keeps my mind busy with something I've done ever since I was a child, and it's my way of sharing our LORD with who ever comes to visit.  Thanks for reading my poetry - I'd love to hear your comments.  May God richly bless you.  Send emails to:   EvaYoung @ SkyWriting.Net
