The thing that I must do today,
Is to take another step upon life’s way,
I must make sure that my step is firm,
And that my feet do not slide away.
For the highway of life is very narrow,
And many sirens are calling to me,
I must press on to reach my destiny,
To the place where I hope one day to be.
It is the place to where all redeemed souls will go,
A resting place for those who have shown they care,
No one knows where eternity is to be found,
But I’m sure the highway to life will lead me there.
Some people think it is a place where the streets are paved with gold,
Where the music of heavenly choirs will abound,
I prefer to think of it as a haven of solitude,
Where peace and tranquillity will be found.
