The Narrow Way

When lone I tread the narrow way, with eyes downcast and heavy heart Much further from the end I feel, than when I first did start The Narrow Way, how far it goes Until the end, only He knows But before I rest in glory's peace I'll tread the way beneath my feet Though often I in darkness dwell, with deepest loathing for my sin Impart forgiveness to me, Lord; renew my mind within The Narrow Way, how far it goes Until the end, only He knows But before I rest in glory's peace I'll tread the way beneath my feet When I meet trials of varied kind, That test my faith through hardships grim May I rejoice in Hope of Life, to focus all on Him The Narrow Way, how far it goes Until the end, only He knows But before I rest in glory's peace I'll tread the way beneath my feet Though nearly to despair harassed, pierced through, struck down by fiery dart, I have the Spirit of belief, so, I do not lose heart The Narrow Way, how far it goes Until the end, only He knows But before I rest in glory's peace I'll tread the way beneath my feet Then I will tread the Narrow Way, with head upheld and burden light To run the race before me now, and end in glory bright The Narrow Way, how far it goes Until the end, only He knows But before I rest in glory's peace I'll tread the way beneath my feet.
