THE PATH OF LIFE
THE PATH OF LIFE
New Orleans Dixieland Jass
Words by Kate Watkins Furman
Music by J. Roel Lungay
Arranged and performed by Fr. J. Roel Lungay
1
When walking down the path of life
Remember what I say
That every man must feel the thorns
That grow along the way.
Refrain:
[Yes/And], every soul will stumble
For every man is weak
And the road of life uncertain;
It's prospects often bleak.
2
But always give a helping hand:
A word of love, a smile
To help the soul beside you walk
Across each weary mile.
(Repeat Refrain)
3
For love will cause the sun to shine
And everywhere you go
The painful thorns less noticed
As the roses bloom and grow.
(Repeat Refrain 2x)
Coda:
It's prospects often bleak!
From the book, Nearer To Thee (1994)
