LIFE ON THE NARROW ROAD

I think we've all had days like this...just becuase I'm a christian, it doesn't make me perfect (yet!)

I slept through my alarm today
Rolled out of bed and ran out the door
And I was half way to work, sitting on the bus
Before I realised, I hadn't said 'hello' to you today
I'm sorry

So I tried to make it through the day
Making decisions, struggling on
And when I get home, I just went straight to bed
Before I realised, I hadn't made the time for you today
I'm so sorry Lord

It's twisting and tumbling, sliding and stumbling
Never a dull moment on the road of faith
You're lifting me, touching me, pouring your grace on me
I'll just keep walking on
Living ths life on the narrow road

Well I fell like I've spent the whole week in church
From meeting to meeing, never a break
And I'm working so hard, but I'm not saved by deeds
I know it's only by your grace
That I survive at all, I'm so thankful Lord
