Verse 1

It’s not an easy road, we are travelling to heaven,

For many are the thorns on the way;

It’s not an easy road, but the Saviour is with us,

His presence gives us joy every day.

Verse 2

No, no! It’s not an easy road,

No, no! It’s not an easy road;

But Jesus walks beside me and

brightens the journey,

And lightens every heavy load.

It’s not an easy road there are trials and troubles,

And many are the dangers we meet;

But Jesus guards and keeps so that nothing can

harm us,

And smoothes the rugged path for our feet.

Verse 3

Though I am often footsore and weary from travel

Though I am often bowed down with care;

A better day is coming when home in the glory,

We’ll rest in perfect peace over there.
