Christian Rock anthem. Originally written back in the mid seventies when I started to be influenced by Christian faith, hence its very evangelical slant!

Story behind the song
Remake of a song I wrote way back in 1975. The original version (called 'Road To Heaven) can be found here:

At the time of writing I was thinking it was a piano anthem... heavily influenced by 'Stairway to Heaven'. But over time it morphed into other things!
Lyrics
In a world where there's so much wrong
We need somebody to lead us from harm
To take our hands and guide us to Jesus
Often we are lost, we don't know where to turn
Our soul can be willing, but our flesh ready to burn
Take our hearts and guide us to Jesus
All around we see people losing their souls to the devil
I pray God will forgive them when the judgment day comes
Living a life amongst all this wrong
There's only one path that should lead us from harm
That's the road that leads to heaven
Listen to the message Jesus said we should
It was for us He was nailed to that wood
That's the way that leads to heaven
All around we see people living out life in darkness and tears
I pray that love will help them overcome their deepest fears
Where will we be when our body dies?
How will our soul be in the Lord's eyes?
We can never predict what life brings us day by day
Make your peace with Jesus before it's too late
There are so many religions, there are so many faiths
Which one can bring hope to the human race?
Which one is the road that leads to heaven?
Who knows how many souls
Are looking for the right roads?
Are searching for the light
Trying to do what's right?
And Jesus is the light of the world
Have faith in Jesus and He'll set you free
Taste the bread of life and He will make you see
How to get on the road to heaven
Jesus... light of the world
Jesus... light of the world
Jesus... light of the world
Jesus... light of the world
