The Crossroads of Decision

I stand at the crossroads of decision,

Either life or death I can choose.

I know I must move with precision.

My soul I can keep or can lose.

To the left there are valleys of sunshine.

The highway is broad and well-trod.

On it pleasures, riches and fame shall be mine.

It tempts and allures, this life without God.

And yet, I've been told, and I know that it's true,

The pleasures are but for a season,

And riches and fame I know I shalt rue,

If I walk on this pathway of treason.

I am not my own, I am bought with a price.

God's salvation and love have I known.

The world with it's pleasures DOES entice

But as God's child, I should walk alone.

I turn to the right and behold a small track.

Narrow and stony, as it twists and it turns.

Yet if I walk on THIS path I know I shan't lack,

In the wisdom the world in it's foolishness spurns.

My heart is fixed, I shall walk on this path.

God shall supply all my needs.

Who cares if the world will in ridicule laugh

When my Saviour so faithfully leads.
