Lyrics: Patrick McFerrin Price
Music: Patrick McFerrin Price
I've traveled this big world
Lonesome I have roamed
I've laid down in green pastures
I’ve rolled down rocky roads
And as my hair turned silver
I lost my lust for gold
Now cups of wine can't satisfy the thirst within my soul
Narrow is the road
The road to glory
Perdition's gates are broad and wide
On the steps you take do ponder
From the path do not far wander
For the narrow road to glory is worth the price
I've broke bread with the wicked
I've made my plans with fools
To the gates of destruction
I've led many others to
And though my sins were many
I reached out for His robe
And through His tender mercies now my cup overflows
Narrow is the road
The road to glory
Perdition's gates are broad and wide
On the steps you take do ponder
From the path do not far wander
For the narrow road to glory is worth the price
From the lonely orphan children
To the great kings of men
All are bound to perish death is the wage of sin
So turn away from gossip
Deceitfulness and woe
Let the carpenter from Galilee take up your heavy load
Narrow is the road
The road to glory
Perdition's gates are broad and wide
On the steps you take do ponder
From the path do not far wander
For the narrow road to glory is worth the price
For the narrow road to glory is worth the price
