BROAD OR NARROW

BROAD OR NARROW        


Broad is the way of the world...leading
To destruction, sin, and corruption, but
Narrow the way that shows the path of
Christ, there's only his way that follows

What's right, choose rightly he says and
Don't be fooled, though many are called,
The chosen are few; the narrow way will
Lead you home but you don't have to do

It alone...as you follow the Savior all the
Way home, and as one...you'll reign with
Him who wears the golden diadem, King
Of kings, Lord of lords...over all, great or

Small; Ruler, Master, God the Redeemer,
Fulfilled the law, walked the perfect way
Without sin, died the death that paid for
The sins of men, even though he had no

Sin, he took yours, mine, and all of man's
Failures and sin, it was the worst it's ever
Been, so we could come to Him...fully in,
Focused on the debt HE paid, on Him the

Penalty of sin was laid...it is finished now,
He cried come to me, you won't be denied.
