THE ROAD THAT LEADS TO HOME

I’ve been on a long, long journey,And it’s been a rough old road,But I just keep pressing onward,

Tho I carry a heavy load.Many times I’ve asked the question:

“Why do I keep plodding on?”It’s then I am reminded:

This old road will lead me home.

Tho I stumble on the pathway,Tho I fall along the way,

There’s still hope for my tomorrows,And there’s strength for me today,

For there’s a Hand that stretches downward,Makes my feet to walk again.

Tho my journey may be rugged,He’ll be with me ‘til the end.

Yes, this old road has been rocky,But I travel not alone.

My dear Lord is ever with me -

Day by day, we’re getting closerTo those gates that will swing wide -

Where I’ll be “welcomed home” to Heaven,As Jesus leads me safe inside.
