I'll Take the Old Highway

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 decided to walk the

highway with the redeemed

I'll take the old highway

The one that's called straight

It's very narrow All

the way to the gate

It started at Calvary

that's where I got on

It's the old old highway

paved with grace

all the way home

Our highway may look to worldly men

Like it's a road to a bitter end

For we are promised

tribulations all along

The difference is easy to explain

for we have everything to gain

So just count me in

the number going home
