Which Way Are You Going, My Brother?

Representative Text

1 Which way are you traveling, my brother?
Which way are you going tonight?
The broad road which leads to destruction,
Or the narrow which leads into light?

Refrain:
Which way? which way?
Which way are you going, my brother?
The broad road leads to an endless night;
But the narrow way leads to realms of day;
The narrow way leads to realms of day.

2 The Savior is calling you, brother,
To journey with Him on life’s road;
He’ll guide you, protect you, and keep you;
He’ll lighten your life’s weary load. [Refrain]

3 When footsore and lonely and weary,
He’ll whisper, My child, I am near;
Just cast upon Me every burden,
Press onward, have faith, do not fear. [Refrain]

4 He’ll walk ever closely beside you,
And lovingly guard to the end;
Through danger and trial, and sorrow,
His presence will ever attend. [Refrain]

5 And then He will lead you on safely,
To Canaan’s fair, glittering shore,
Where you, with the ransomed in glory,
Shall all dwell with Him evermore. [Refrain]
