In the broad road, that most dangerous way-----
While right before you, narrow and strait,
Is the bright pathway to heaven's pearly gate ?
Narrow and strait, . . narrow and strait . .
Is the bright pathway to heaven's pearly gate.
2 Do you find pleasures lasting and pure
In the gay scenes that the thoughtless allure-----
While your Redeemer, with love so great,
Points to the way that is narrow and strait ?
3 Come, then, beloved, no longer stay ;
Leave the broad highway, oh, leave it to-day !
Make your decision-------oh, do not wait !
Take thou the pathway so narrow and strait !
