Verse 1

Enter in the narrow way;
For wide and broad the way
That leads to destruction and many are they
Who enter in this way.

Chorus:

O where, Lord, is my heart?
My moments and my days?
Do I love what You love and shun the rest
To give You all the praise!

Verse 2

But narrow is the gate;
Restricted is the way
That leads to life and few there be
Who enter in this way.
