—Bill Monroe
The path is narrow all the way
But I can hear my Savior say
Come with me your soul I'll bless
In that home above I'll give you rest
Chorus:
Oh the shining path leads up to Heaven
But you must travel it all alone
And to those who walk the shining pathway
Oh the gates will open when you reach that home
I'm in the shining path at last
Oh I can see my Savior's face
Oh I've been saved by Him today
By His ever loving grace
The path is awful hard to trod
But you must put your trust in God
The path will brighten all the way
In that fair home we'll meet some day
