Coming On Down the Road

COMING ON DOWN THE ROAD by Mark Heard.

[Prelude: "There Is A Fountain.]

When you get off your knees for the first time
And you know that you've been talking to the Lord
You can see how His love far exceeds any other you've known
It's not some mirage He's created
Or some far-fetched imaginary high
It's Jesus within--expressly for sin He did die

Coming on down the road, coming on down the road
Coming on down the road Jesus made
Giving Him your heavy load
Coming on down the King's highway with the toll Jesus paid

When you get into the Bible and you read it
All the good news you need is at hand
There's no reason to doubt when there are no buts about God's commands
You can read all about the Resurrection
And the price Jesus paid for our sin
But it can't help you none unless you've asked Christ the Son to come in

Coming on down the road, coming on down the road
Coming on down the road Jesus made
Giving Him your heavy load
Coming on down the King's highway with the toll Jesus paid

How can anyone keep on living without the Lord
How can one smile and keep on sinning
When the price he can't afford

Coming on down the road, coming on down the road
Coming on down the road Jesus made
Giving Him your heavy load
Coming on down the King's highway with the toll Jesus paid
