Amos 3:3
Shoes of Peace
Following the Worthy One
In shoes of peace
The road ahead is broad
Where nary a soul one meets
Who hasn't heard of the sorrow
led by weary, laden, rebellious feet
Where Christ is calling
Your baggage can be carted
on the broad way,
but must be dumped
to walk the narrow path
To take hold of a life worth living
To yield a furrowed field
and all your plans askew
To journey an adventure
where His mercy is ever new
But ..
the path is narrow
Where my Savior tarried and made the Way
Two can go together,
yet One must hold the other
Hands held and followed close
Eyes fixed on the horizon
The path..
Where mercy flowed
Where weary travelers left their load
Discarded their stains and woe
Following Christ and..
Away they go

Because strait is the gate: and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
