1 There’s a way that is narrow and straight,
And it leads to the regions of day;
There is room for the small and the great,
Will you walk in that beautiful way?
Refrain:
Will you walk in that beautiful, beautiful way?
O it leads to the regions of day;
Will you walk in that beautiful, beautiful way,
In that beautiful, beautiful way?
2 There’s a way where the sojourner’s feet,
If they follow its path cannot stray;
There the Savior your coming will greet,
Will you walk in that beautiful way? [Refrain]
3 There’s a way where the faithful have trod,
Who are now in celestial array,
It will lead to the city of God,
Will you walk in that beautiful way? [Refrain]
