This songs explains just how I feel right now. I have had the most amazing weekend. God is so passionate about His glory. It scares me at times to think about how He wants to be glorified through the life of my family and how He goes in bringing that glory about. I was reminded this weekend (which I will share with you later where we went and why) that this road that he has us on is not a popular one. The bible says that only a FEW find it. Is it because they don't have clear direction as to how to get there? No. Is it because the don't have a "special calling" on their lives? No. I believe its because they have just fallen for an Americanized Christianity and COMFORT and they CHOOSE NOT to walk this road. Tonight, I choose gratitude for this narrow road, for it is there that I have SEEN and MET with this living GOD. May the Lord grant you the faith and grace to walk it as well.
Narrow Little Road Lyrics
Words and Music - Mo Leverett, 1995
I believe in the love of God
It is an orphan's wildest dream
It is a narrow little road
It is an ever-widening desert stream
refrain:
Oh I, and I,
I will leave this road ...for the Narrow
It is portrayed in the bread and wine
Let it fortify my bones
It is more than just a sign
It is the fountain from that desert stone
refrain
It is the path where the humble go
It is the narrow not the broad
It is the pathway down the hill
To the graveyard of the living God
refrain
The love of God is the hymn of hope
Let the needy join the throng
Let the widow hear and cope
Let the crippled rise to sing this song
Refrain
