Stay On the Path.
Many a day we stray
Stray from the straight and narrow
The golden path, the Way
So blinded we are by the
neon lights of evil and vice
that draw us closer day by day
Enmeshing us in the horror and coil
of the great world's turmoil.
Groping and stumbling
life is hard we say but
Free choice we wanted
Free choice we got
Look what we’ve done
With this power bestowed
Then one bright day
A song, a word, an angel perhaps
Open our eyes and what do we see
A blinding flash, His true light
Glorious prisms, colorful and bright
Warm and loving, oh what a sight
Thick scales drop from our eyes
No longer lost, we find the Way
Smooth and even, a ride on the clouds
Thanks and praise we sing and shout
as we savor and cling to His abundant love.
