Representative Text

1 I am walking in the highway,
In the highway of the Lord;
And indeed I've made it my way,
By believing in His word.

Refrain:
The highway, the highway,
By the Spirit of the Lord.
I am walking in His word;
The highway, the highway,
I am walking, safely walking in the way.

2 All along, the crystal river,
Flowing from the throne of God,
With refreshing waters ever
Cheers the pilgrim on the road. [Refrain]

3 Music in the treetops ringing,
Heav'nly music, rich and rare,
Blessed cheer to faint hearts bringing,
Floats upon the constant air. [Refrain]

4 I am happy on the highway,
To the land of glory bound;
On the way, the holy, highway,
Angel voices all around. [Refrain]

5 Come, O sinner, walk the highway,
Flowers bloom on ev'ry hand;
Come, O come and make it thy way,
Journeying to the gloryland. [Refrain]
