8.6.8.6 Tunes

1.

There is a path that leads to God

All others go astray

Narrow but pleasant is the road

And Christians love the way

2.

It leads straight through this world of sin

And dangers must be pass’d

But those who boldly walk therein

Will get to heav’n at last

3.

How shall an infant pilgrim dare

This dangerous path to tread?

For on the way’s many a snare

For youthful travelers spread

4.

While the broad road, where thousand go

Lies near and opens fair

And many turn aside, I know

To walk with sinners there

5.

But lest my feeble steps should slide

Or wander from Thy way

Lord, condescend to be my guide

And I shall never stray

6.

Then I may go without alarm

And trust His word of old

“The lambs, He’ll gather with His arm

And lead them to the fold

7.

Thus I may safely venture through

Beneath my Shepherd’s care

And keep the gate of heav’n in view

Till I shall enter there

Amen
