Analysis of A Way to Go



We're on a race to run for our lives
We're on a road- a road to be chosen
Where do you want to go?
Where will you go?
I want to go on the road that's easy
But thinking of that man who walked on the sea
And died for you like He did for me
Then I knew that I want to be
On that narrow road where He leads me.
Like a ship sailing
One stormy night
When tempests rage,
Where will my ship go?
What shall your faith do?
Be on your guard
Wear the armor of God
Your faith will be tried
But blessed be those who'll survive.
