Walking the Narrow Way

I woke before the sunrise with a prayer upon my tongue;

The world was quiet as the church bells slowly rung;

Dust on my boots, but my heart felt clean;

Like a river washed the places

I have been;

Lord, I've stumbled;

Lord, I've strayed;

Still Your mercy lights the way;

Every burden that I lay;

Turns to praise when I obey;

I'm walking the narrow way;

By grace I'm learning day by day;

Through the storm and through the flame;

I will call upon Your name;

Heaven's home is where I'll stay;

I'm walking the narrow way

Mama sang the gospel while the supper bread was warm;

Daddy held the

Bible like a shelter in a storm;

Those old hymns still ring inside my chest;

Like a promise that the weary will be blessed;

When the road grows dark and long;

You're the heartbeat in my song;

Every tear and every fear;

Fades away when You are near, yeah;

I walk in the narrow way;

By grace I learn day by day;

Through the storm and through the fame;

I will call upon Your name;

Heaven's home is where I'll stay;

I walk in the narrow way

If my steps grow, we can slow;

Hold me closer as I go;

When the valley reaches low;

Let your light keep shining so;

I'm walking the narrow way;

By grace I'm learning day by day;

Through the storm and through the flame;

I will call upon Your name;

Heaven come is where I'll stay;

I'm walking the narrow way;

Till the morning breaks above;

I'll keep singing of your love;

I'll walk in the narrow way;
