I Know What Lies Ahead

G
This road I'm on is strait and narrow

       C                 G
But it leads to a better home


It was laid by Christ one day at Calvary

      A7              D7
While He suffered all alone

     G
This road may lead over many high mountains

    C                G
And valleys dark and low


But I'll walk each day with sweet assurance

                D7       G
And I’ll safely reach my home



Ahead there's joy and gladness

    C                  G
And rest for the weary soul


Ahead there's peace and contentment

     A7                     D7
Everybody will be happy and whole

     G
I'll be at home with Jesus

      C                   G
Where tears will never be shed


Though often this road gets rough and rocky

             D7         G
Still I know what lies ahead



While on this road I get so weary

    C                   G
And often my feet would stray


But a gentle hand still leads me onward

    A7                D7
And helps me find the way

   G
As I climb each hill and cross each valley

       C              G
By His hand I'm daily lead


But I won't look back gonna keep on walking

           D7        G
For I know what lies ahead



Ahead there's joy and gladness

    C                  G
And rest for the weary soul


Ahead there's peace and contentment

     A7                     D7
Everybody will be happy and whole

     G
I'll be at home with Jesus

      C                   G
Where tears will never be shed


Though often this road gets rough and rocky

             D7         G
Still I know what lies ahead



Ahead there's joy and gladness

    C                  G
And rest for the weary soul


Ahead there's peace and contentment

     A7                     D7
Everybody will be happy and whole

     G
I'll be at home with Jesus

      C                   G
Where tears will never be shed


Though often this road gets rough and rocky

             D7         G
Still I know what lies ahead
