The Way of the Cross Leads Home Lyrics & Chords

By Jessie B. Pounds

(G)I must needs go home by the way of the cross,

There’s (C)no other way but (G)this;

I shall (D)ne’er get sight of the (G)Gates of Light,

If the (A)way of the cross I (D)miss. 



Chorus

The (G)way of the cross leads home,

The way of the cross leads home;

It is (C)sweet to (Am)know, as I (G)on(C)ward (G/D)go,

(C)The (G)way of the (D)cross leads (G)home.



I must needs go on in the blood-sprinkled way,

The path that the Savior trod,

If I ever climb to the heights sublime,

Where the soul is at home with God. 



Then I bid farewell to the way of the world,

To walk in it nevermore;

For my Lord says, “Come,” and I seek my home,

Where He waits at the open door.
