Hymns - The Old Cross Road - Текст песни

# There are many paths through this world of sin,
But there's only one I shall travel in;
'Tis the old Cross Road, or the way called ?Straight??
There is just one way to the pearly gate.

 * Refrain:
 There is just one way to the pearly gate,
 To the crown of life and the friends who wait;
 'Tis the old Cross Road, or the way called ?Straight??
 There is just one way to the pearly gate.

# There are some who sneer at the old Cross Road,
At the pearly gate and the soul's abode;
Yet I mind them not, but, with happy song
And assurance sweet, still I press along.
# Others risk their souls on some new-made way,
Thinking they will come to the gate some day;
Oh, may they find out, ere their lives are done,
That the old Cross Road is the only one
