THE ROAD THAT LEADS HOME
There's a familiar country road
That always takes me home
A place of warmth and love
No matter where I roam
Lined with trees and wildflowers
A road so crooked and wide
A place so dear to my heart
In the beautiful countryside
No place on earth is so precious
Than where I grew up as a child
And even when I'm far away
The memories reach through the miles
There's another road that leads home
A place so perfect and sweet
I haven't yet finished my journey
But I long to walk on it's streets
This road is so straight and narrow
But I sometimes get lost on my way
There's a book of directions to follow
And there's help along the way
My home here on Earth is temporary
Someday it will pass away
But the home at the end of my journey
Will be there forever to stay
It's streets are paved with gold
It's mansions so bright and fair
And someday at the end of my journey
I'll travel through the air
Yes, Heaven is my destination
I feel like I've traveled so long
Someday Jesus will come for me
And I'll hear the angels song
The eastern sky will split open
My savior will appear in the sky
He'll lift me up in the air
And home with him I will fly
