Lord, the old paths,
are in despair . . .
chosen now the ones
heading nowhere.
The good, perfect way,
is still out there . . .
but, today it seems
nobody really cares.
No one wants to see,
the one true way . . .
they would rather take
the one leading away.
They are walking now,
on shaky, rocky ground . . .
rest for their weary souls
won’t ever be found.
Lord, the old paths,
they are tried and true
but nobody anymore . . .
wants to be led to You!
~~~~~~~
“Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways,
and see, and ask for the old paths, where
is the good way, and walk therein, and ye
shall find rest for your souls. But they
said, We will not walk therein.”
