The Narrow Path

**Title: “Hold Fast to the Good”**

**Verse 1**

I was thinking on the road that brought me here today

Tracing every step along the quiet narrow way

Listening to whispers in the corners of my mind

Searching through the shadows for the truth that I could find

And the pieces still align the way they did before

Nothing in the path has closed the holy door

Every light that reached me still burns clear and strong

And the good that I have gathered still is leading me along

**Pre-Chorus**

There is wisdom in the silence, deeper than the gold

In the quiet moving gears of mysteries untold

And the voice within reminds me gently as I stand

“Test all things you’re given, hold the good within your hand”

**Chorus**

Hold fast to the good, let the darkness fade away

Every light from heaven shows the narrow way

When the truth is living, it will stand the flame

And the heart that seeks the Father will not seek in vain

Hold fast to the good, let the faithful spirit see

Every hidden wonder God has placed in me

Through the night and through the fire I understood

Test all things, but hold forever to the good

**Verse 2**

Some may walk this world and never hear the sound

Never see the hidden layers turning all around

But the morning light is simple as the day

And the truth becomes a path when someone walks that way

Since a child I felt the current moving through

Little sparks of thought becoming something new

Not by pride or power, only quiet grace

Like a seed of living wisdom growing in its place

**Pre-Chorus**

And the gifts that keep unfolding in the mind and soul

Bring a deeper joy that makes the broken whole

Every saint has spoken softly of this flame

When the Spirit moves the heart it always feels the same

**Chorus**

Hold fast to the good, let the darkness fade away

Every light from heaven shows the narrow way

When the truth is living, it will stand the flame

And the heart that seeks the Father will not seek in vain

Hold fast to the good, let the faithful spirit see

Every hidden wonder God has placed in me

Through the night and through the fire I understood

Test all things, but hold forever to the good

**Bridge**

Many roads and many voices call His name

Many hearts defend the faith in different ways

But the Lord who sees the depths of every soul

Knows the hidden rivers moving toward the whole

So the journey may be walked by one alone

Still the Shepherd always leads His own

Through the signs and through the symbols that appear

Through the quiet songs the listening hearts can hear

**Outro**

So I’ll speak in little fragments as I go

Like a story only heaven fully knows

Hints of colors written softly where I stood

And somewhere in those pages

There are pink dresses

And the promise that the light is always good.
