New Highway - Larry Sparks Lyrics - 40 - Larry Sparks

I read a book about a man 

Who never went to school 

He could tell you more things about life 

Than any man ever knew 

He didn't study to be a carpenter 

But things he could build 

Would stand the storms life could bring 

No matter how small or big 

Chorus: 

And he built a new highway to heaven 

And few there'll be me that travel thereon 

He put me on a new highway to heaven 

There's no detour sign, you don't have to travel alone 

He didn't study to be a scientist 

Or have a doctor's degree 

He knew more than any surgeon 

Of this world could ever teach 

He can remove a stony heart 

Put a new one in its place 

Jesus does this from inside out 

Leaves no scars, no other trace 

Repeat chorus 

He put me on a new highway to heaven 

And few there'll be me that travel thereon 

He put me on a new highway to heaven 

There's no detour sign, you don't have to travel alone 

He put me on a new highway to heaven
