Story behind the song
The music for this song was composed on 9/12/2025. The lyrics for all the verses except 4 and 5 were written about 40 years ago, but I just set them aside and never composed music for it until I stumbled across it in an old song book of my music yesterday.
Lyrics
1 You get up. You go to work, just like millions of other folks.
The lifeblood of America is its families.
You wont see yours until you get back home.
2 At quitting time you hit the road.
The highways like an artery. The cars are the blood.
Much blood flows through the artery.
Bridge: The cars are the blood. Much blood flows through the arteries.
3 Many cars roll down the road. Each car takes a capillary,
And reaches its destination - home.
Chorus:
What road are you taking? Theres one that leads to Heaven.
Its through the blood of Jesus. Long ago, he shed his blood.
An innocent man, convicted of crimes he did not do.
He took the guilt that was rightfully ours.
He bled for the wrongs that we have done.
The road to Heaven is through his blood.
His blood covers the guilt of all our sins.
All we need to do is believe in Him. All we need to do is believe.
4 So, if your lifes a heavy load, just call upon the name of Christ
In Jesus, you can be saved. He is the Way, the Truth, the Life
5 And when your story is all told, the ending will be death or life.
Christ died for your sins to give you life. He rose so you could live eternally.
Chorus:
What road are you taking? Theres one that leads to Heaven.
Its through the blood of Jesus. Long ago, he shed his blood.
An innocent man, convicted of crimes he did not do.
He took the guilt that was rightfully ours.
He bled for the wrongs that we have done.
The road to Heaven is through his blood.
His blood covers the guilt of all our sins.
All we need to do is believe in Him. All we need to do is believe.
All we need to do is believe. All we need to do is believe.
