It's not an easy road we are travelling to heaven...

It's Not An Easy Road 
Words, music by John W. Peterson

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

Chorus:
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 the 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 smooths the rugged path for our feet

Chorus:
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 the heavy load

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

Chorus:
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 the heavy load
