The walk is up to you the song

the Scriptures say no one can serve two 
you must choose the one that most suits you 
God or Mammon, who will be your preference? 
pick your master with a righteous reverence

this I therefore say from God's anointed pews 
yes, He has set the path but the walk is up to you 

as man cannot live by bread alone 
With the words out of our mouths we must atone 
while staying on that faithful course 
being guided by God's spiritual force 

this I therefore say from God's anointed pews 
yes, He has set the path but the walk is up to you 

blessed are those poor in spirit 
for to God's kingdom they'll be admitted 
blessed are the quiet and the meek 
for they'll inherit this world we all seek 
blessed are those who now mourn 
for the comforter of God on them shall be worn

this I therefore say at a time long overdue 
yes, God has set the path but the walk is up to you 

accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior 
live with a christ-like behavior 
let the Lord guide you and lead the way
as you take the walk of faith every single day 

and don't worry about worldly attractions 
which the devil uses as a distraction 

this I therefore say at a time long overdue 
yes, God has set the path but the walk is up to you

and if you desire to serve with the chosen few. 
yes, God has set the path but the walk is up to you

this I therefore say from God's anointed pews 
yes, He has set the path, but the walk is up to you
