Lyrics The Oak Ridge Boys

The Oak Ridge Boys

The First Step to Heaven

Wake up oh sinner you're facing the darkness of death

Each moment could be the moment you draw your last breath

And the weight of your fears are the shackles that keep you enslaved

But the Blood of the Lamb is the one way to bypass the grave

The first step to Heaven is knowing you're lost

The highway to Glory is the way of the cross

You can hand Him your burdens the moment you see

The first step to Heaven is down on your knees

To all you believers who have answered the good shepherd's call

Flood the chasm of darkness with the Light that can save one and all

Not a soul crosses Jordan on the strength of their money or deeds

That mansion up yonder is reserved for those who believe
