The Cross Road

Two roads lead to eternity
Just one to everlasting life
Only one can bring us peace
And end our heartache and strife

The other leads to destruction
A world of darkness and pain
A place without redemption
Forever to remain

One leads to "The Cross" road
And a hill called Calvary
Where the Lamb of God was sacrificed
For all may finally be free

Free will was given to all who live
To choose however they see
Which road you choose will surely decide
Where you'll spend eternity

Some will choose "The Cross" road
That lead to eternal bliss
Others will choose damnation
And Heaven, they'll surely miss

The choice is ours, it's freely given
It's one only we can make
I have chosen "The Cross" road
Which road will you take?
