Larry Sparks - New Highway - Larry Sparks lyrics

I read a book about a man Who never went to school He could tell you more things about life Than any man ever knew He didn't study to be a carpenter But things he could build Would stand the storms life could bring No matter how small or big Chorus: And he built a new highway to heaven And few there'll be me that travel thereon He put me on a new highway to heaven There's no detour sign, you don't have to travel alone He didn't study to be a scientist Or have a doctor's degree He knew more than any surgeon Of this world could ever teach He can remove a stony heart Put a new one in its place Jesus does this from inside out Leaves no scars, no other trace Repeat chorus He put me on a new highway to heaven And few there'll be me that travel thereon He put me on a new highway to heaven There's no detour sign, you don't have to travel alone He put me on a new highway to heaven
