THE OLD CROSS ROAD

Oh, dear brother, heed my warning.
Don't let old Satan hold your hand.
You'll be lost in sin forever.
You'll never see the Promised Land.

CHORUS: The Old Cross Road now is waiting.
Which way are you gonna take?
One road leads to destruction;
The other to the Pearly Gates.

One road leads up to Heaven.
The other goes down below.
Jesus our Lord will protect you.
He'll guide you past the Old Cross Road.

Soon your life will be over.
You'll have to face the Old Cross Road.
Will you be ready then, my brother,
To shun the one down below?
