was a member of the American

"THE WAY"

When Sunday comes around and
Our Church we must attend,
This little band of disciples
Meets to worship this dearest
Friend.
We sing and pray as commanded
And study the word of the Lord:
We know that we must love and
Cherish the holy word.
The minister gets up before us,
And teaches as he knows best
The one and only way to
Reach the land of rest.
He proceeds to teach the gospel
To his followers one and all
And we must listen and believe
Or from God His children will
fall.
We have listened and studied
And have fully realized
To be a member of Gods family
You must come forth and be
baptized.
You must refrain from worldly
deeds
And live a clean, pure life,
Even though you have to live
In word of labor and strife.
And then when He beckons you
To the land of rest beyond
You can produly stand before
Him
So He can crown you say well
done,"
Though good and faithful
servant
That the straight and narrow
way
is the only way to gain
Life Eternal on the great
Judgement Day.
