A Half A Mile A Day-Johnny Cash
One night after a concert
I walked through the streets of the town
And came upon a little church

The service was over but the testimonials had just begun

People caught up in the spririt of the night
Just didn't want to leave
So I stepped inside the door
And sat down by a little old lady in the back

A man stood up in front and said

"I just want all of you to know that
I'm going straight to heaven as fast as I can go
Like an arrow shot frome a bow" and he sat down

Another man stood up and said

I'm sailing right straight into heaven
Like a giant clipper ship, sailing on a sea of blue
And nothings gonna deter me or keep me from that safe harbor

He sat down and another man stood up and said
I'm flying into the portals of heaven on silver wings

Sailing over all the troubles and trials down below

Straight on in and he sat down

The little lady beside me made it to her feet slowly

And all got quiet as she raised her face
Not to the preacher or the congregation

But toward heaven and prayerfully said

I'm comming, Lord for my heavenly reward

I'm on my way to You, can You see me coming through?

Through clouds of persecution and stumbling on the way

But I expect I'm making about a half a mile a day

The road to Heaven doesn't have a rapid transit plan

It's one way with no changes going to the promised land

But I believe that if I'll heed the things He had to say

Even I might get to Heaven at a half a mile a day

Mmh

Lord, when I let You lead, I don't make any speed

'Cos I have to stop and touch the ones who need so much

And then sometimes others pull me off of Your narrow way

And by my mistakes I barely make a half a mile a day

But the road to Heaven doesn't have a rapid transit plan

It's one way with no changes going to the promised land

But I believe that if I'll heed the things He had to say

Even I might get to Heaven at a half a mile a day
Even I might get to Heaven at a half a mile a day
