Probably "Rocky Road" from The Sacred Harp (1991 Edition).

294 Rocky Road

Tune: J. C. Brown & Paine Denson, 1935
Words: J. C. Brown & Paine Denson, 1935
Meter: Irregular

I'm enlisted on the road,
I'm almost done traveling,
Enlisted on the road.
I'm bound to go where Jesus is,
My soul shall ascend where Jesus is,
To enjoy the peaceful home of rest.
I'm bound to go where Jesus is,
And be there forever blest.

Chorus:

It's a mighty rocky road,
I'm almost done traveling,
A mighty rocky road,
I'm bound to go where Jesus is.

I've a Father on the road,
He's almost done traveling,
A Father on the road.
He's bound to go where Jesus is,
His soul shall ascend where Jesus is,
To enjoy the peaceful home of rest.
He's bound to go where Jesus is,
And be there forever blest.

(Chorus)
