Gospel Road (Part 1) Songtext
von Johnny Cash

Now come along with me in the footsteps of Jesus
And I′ll show you why they do

Matthew Mark and Luke and John
Told about Jesus on that gospel highway
Matthew Mark and Luke and John
Told about Jesus on that gospel road


How his pillow was a stone where he laid his head
How the hungry five thousand on the hill were fed
How the people came and listened to him ev'rything he said
Walkin′ down that gospel road

The desire of ages now had finally come
Born to walk upon that Gospel Highway
Born of a virgin down in Bethlehem
Born to walk upon that Gospel Road

And life would begin at the touch of his hand
The people would listen to him throughout the land
For never a man spoke like this man
Walkin' down that Gospel Road


Here in the pieceful countryside of Nazareth
Jesus often walked, studied, mediated and prayed
