1 There’s a royal highway leading
To the King’s sublime abode;
And I seek a home in glory,
Walking in that royal road.

Refrain:
O the blessèd royal road,
O the blessèd royal road;
Will you go with me to glory,
Walking in the royal road?

2 O’er the highway Jesus traveled,
Up the hill of Calvary trod,
That He might a path make open,
Leading to the throne of God. [Refrain]

3 As I journey o’er the highway
To the country of my king,
Oft by faith I hear the echo
From the land where angels sing. [Refrain]

4 Oft a glad, entrancing vision
To my spirit is bestowed;
’Tis the city, bright, eternal,
Whither leads the royal road. [Refrain]
