A Half A Mile A Day Lyrics - Johnny Cash

I'm comin' Lord, for my heavenly reward 

I'm comin' home to you, can you see me comin' thru 

Thru clouds of persecution, and stumblin' on my way 

I 'spect I'm only makin', 'bout a half a mile a day. 

Chorus: 

The road to heaven doesn't have a rapid transit plan, 

It's one way with no changes heading to the promised land. 

But I believe that if I'll heed the things He had to say, 

Even I might get to heaven at a half a mile a day. 

Lord, when I let you lead, I never make much speed 

"Cause I have to stop and touch, the ones who need so much 

Then sometimes others pull me, off of Your narrow way 

And by my mistakes, I barely make, a half a mile a day.
