PROVERBS – There is a Way by Bro H
Verse 1 The wise woman builds her house Stone by careful stone But the foolish pulls it down With hands that are her own The simple man believes it all Every word he hears But the prudent watches where he walks And weighs his steps with fear Pre-Chorus Laughter fills the open street But sorrow waits beneath Chorus There is a way That seems right to a man Smooth and wide Like shifting sand There is a road Bright in the day But the end of it Leads away There is a way That seems so sure But the end of it Is the way of death Verse 2 Mockers treat their sin like sport They laugh and turn aside But wisdom walks a narrower path With nothing left to hide The backslider fills his life With the fruit of his own hand But the good man finds contentment In the fear of the Lord’s command Pre-Chorus The heart knows grief The stranger never sees Even joy can end On wounded knees Chorus There is a way That seems right to a man Crowds approve And praise the plan There is a road Easy and broad But its end is far From the face of God There is a way That feels like breath But the end of it Is the way of death Verse 3 The quick-tempered man exalts his pride The patient man holds fast One builds for the coming years One burns it down too fast In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence A fountain of life inside The righteous find a refuge there When every other hope has died Bridge The house will stand Or fall in time The fruit will show The hidden vine Not every smile Means peace within Not every road Leads home again Final Chorus There is a way That seems right to a man Clear and wide Across the land But the end of it No matter how it shines Is a narrow gate Left far behind There is a way Choose it well For not every road Escapes the fall
