Gospel Road

verse 1 Matthew, Mark, and Luke and John Told about Jesus on that gospel highway Matthew, Mark, and Luke and John Told about Jesus on that gospel Road How His pillow was the stones, Where He laid His head How the hungry five thousand on the hill were fed How the people came and listened to him everything he said Walkin’ down that Gospel Road verse 2 The desire of ages now had finally come Born to walk upon that Gospel Highway Born of a Virgin down in Bethlehem Born to walk upon that Gospel Road And life would began at the touch of his hand The people would listen to him through out the land For never a man spoke like this man, Walkin’ down that Gospel Road verse 3 John the Baptist said the kingdom has come Baptizing’ people in the Jordan river John the Baptist said the kingdom has come And they came to hear him at the Jordan stream The voice from the wilderness said hear what I say A redeemer is comin’ and today is the day I was send to tell you now to make straight the way For him to walk upon that gospel road verse 4 So two by two and three by three They walked in His footsteps on that Gospel highway Two by two and three by three Walked in His footsteps on the Gospel road And they would died in shipwrecks and in the lion's den they would died on crosses and on spears of men But when one fell back, two more would start again Walking down that Gospel Road Verse 5 Goin’ to tell the people now in Nazareth He’s come to walk upon that Gospel Highway Goin’ to tell the people now in Nazareth He’s come to walk upon that Gospel Road And into the Synagogue to road did lead To let them know the thing on which their soul must feed The time has come to help the poor and those in need The weight upon that Gospel Road Verse 6 Yes, and Paul and Silas in the midnight jail For talking 'bout Jesus on that Gospel highway Paul and Silas in the midnight jail For talking 'bout Jesus on that Gospel highway And they sang out rejoicing and the jail split wide The doors busted open and they walked outside But they went back to preaching through the countryside Walking on the Gospel Road Verse 7 Hey, won’t you come on with me from Jerusalem And walking to Emmaus on that dusty highway? Hey, won’t you come on with me from Jerusalem And walking to Emmaus on that dusty road? The travelling gets harder and with each rebuff Some turn back because they’ve had enough But Jesus told you it was gonna be rough To walk upon His Gospel Road
