who practice lawlessness!'

enter the kingdom of God."

very much worth the effort!

lives after mine, and learn from those
who follow our example.
Phil. 3:17

27. FIND US FAITHFUL
We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining
grace

28. FIND US FAITHFUL
Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through
godly lives

29. CHORUS:
Oh! may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

30. After all our hopes and dreams have come
and gone
And our children sift through all we've left
behind
May the clues that they discover and the
memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the
we each must find

31. “Oh may all who come behind
us find us faithful….”

32. Heaven is a long way…..it takes
a lot PREPARATION to be there!

33. Walking Straight to Heaven
1. Don’t trust your fortune trust Jesus!
2. Enter the narrow road
3. Do the Fathers will!
