THERE'S ALWAYS BEEN A SIGN POST
TO LEAD ME ON MY WAY
ONE I'VE NE'ER FORGOTTEN
UNTO THIS VERY DAY
THIS ONE IS STILL SO VIVID
THOUGH I WAS ONLY TWELVE
THE WONDER OF A STEEPLE
AT 23RD AND SHELL
NEW IN TOWN AND NEIGHBORHOOD
I SIMPLY HAD TO KNOW
THE MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO HOME
FROM SCHOOL, I TOOK IT SLOW
I DON'T KNOW WHY I QUESTIONED
WHAT COULD THIS STEEPLE BE
I RAN TO ASK MY GRANDMA
WHO SPOKE SO LOVINGLY
THE STEEPLE IS A SIGN POST
THE FIRST THAT YOU HAVE SEEN
TO POINT YOU TO GOD'S KINGDOM
BEHOLD A WONDROUS THING
THOSE THERE WILL TELL
OF JESUS
BELIEVE, FOR IT IS TRUE
IF YOU WILL ONLY LISTEN
HE'LL SPEAK HIS WORD TO YOU
OH LORD AND MY REDEEMER
I THANK YOU FOR THE DAY
A STEEPLE POINTING TO THE SKY
WAS SHOWING ME THE WAY
A SIGNPOST I'LL REMEMBER
THAT LED ME ON TO YOU
THROUGH VALLEYS DARK AND LONELY
THROUGH RICH GREEN PASTURES TOO
YOU TRULY ARE MY SHEPHERD
OF THIS MY HEART WILL SING
UNTIL THE FINAL SIGN POST READS
BEHOLD! IMMORTAL THINGS
AND I SHALL SEE YOU FACE TO FACE
UPON THAT CRYSTAL SHORE
MY FINAL DESTINATION
MY HOME FOREVERMORE
