I’ll Take The Old Highway |
Intro |
VS1 |
There are many new roads we see each day, each one claims they are the way, |
To a life of satisfaction more than we've dreamed. |
They are lined with things that please the eye, but they cannot satisfy |
So I’ve decided to walk the highway with the redeemed. |
Chorus |
I'll take the old highway, |
The one called straight... |
It's very narrow, all the way to the gate. |
It started at Calvary that's where I got on... |
It's an old old highway paved with grace all the way home. |
VS2 |
This highway may look to worldly men like it's a road to a bitter end |
For we are promised tribulation all along. |
But the difference is easy to explain for we have everything to gain, |

So just count me with that number going home. |
