Roads

There are so many roads in this world today
So many roads that can lead us astray
Which road are you walking on, walking today
Just follow my sign and you won't go astray.

There are highways and byways roads that go sideways
And some just go on and on
There are so many roads in this world today
Which road are you walking on.

Many signs on these roads are put there today
To guide us and show us the way
Some say go, some say stop, some even say dead end
There are so many signs on these roads today
They can drive you round the bend.

Just follow my sign and don't look back
Keep on walking, stay on the right track
Don't look to the left, don't look to the right
Look straight ahead keep Jesus in sight.

There's only one road into Heaven today
So get on it now do not delay
Follow my sign follow today
Look out for it, my sign is, one way.

So much truth in a beautiful write. He truly is the Way, Truth, and the Light. Thank you for sharing and reminding us all, if we take the wrong way we will definately fall. Smiles from Lolita

Very astute observation about the "road into Heaven." Indeed, there is only "one way" to get there. Brilliant! Love, Carolyn
