Are you walking the old wide road,
Pursuing the downward way,
With steady pace still journeying
Away from the light of day?
There’s a home of fadeless glory
Where no sin can enter in,
Where Jesus, who died for sinners,
Is calling you to Him.
He loves you with deep compassion;
He saw your soul’s great need,
And there on the cross of Calvary
He, the sinless One, must bleed.
He has paid the ransom fully
And met the claims of God.
There’s nothing for you remaining
But to trust His precious blood.
Is your heart still closed to His mercy,
Your back still turned to His cross?
Oh! the downward track pursuing
Must lead to eternal loss.
Oh, change from the old wide pathway,
And come to a loving Friend,
The sinner’s only Saviour,
Who will keep you to the end.
