Matthew, Mark, and Luke and John

F                               G
Told about Jesus on that gospel Road

    C                               F
How His pillow was the stone, Where He laid His head

         C                           G
How the hungry five thousand on the hill were fed

        Am                                            
How the people came and listened to him everything he said 

   F                     G           
Walkin’ down that Gospel Road

C                          Am
The desire of ages now had finally come

F                             G
Born to walk upon that Gospel Highway

C                         Am   
Born of a Virgin down in Bethlehem

F                             G
Born to walk upon that Gospel Road

    C                         F
And life would begin at the touch of his hand

      C                                G
The people would listen to him through out the land

        Am                                                                    
For never a man spoke like this man, 

   F                     G          
Walkin’ down that Gospel Road

C                        Am
John the Baptist said the kingdom has come

F                               G
Baptizing’ people in the Jordan river

C                        Am   
John the Baptist said the kingdom has come

F                                G
And they came to hear him at the Jordan stream

    C                               F
The voice from the wilderness said hear what I say

     C                      G
A redeemer is comin’ and today is the day

        Am                                        
I was send to tell you now to make straight the way

   F                            G          
For him to walk upon that gospel road

C                   Am
So two by two and three by three

F                                           G
They walked in His footsteps on that Gospel highway

C                Am   
Two by two and three by three

F                                     G
Walked in His footsteps on the Gospel road

    C                                      F
And they would died in shipwrecks and in the lion's den

           C                        G
they would died on crosses and on spears of men

         Am                                        
But when one fell back, two more would start again

   F                     G          
Walking down that Gospel Road

 C                         Am
Yes, Paul and Silas in the midnight jail

F                                      G
For talking 'bout Jesus on that Gospel highway

C                      Am   
Paul and Silas in the midnight jail

F                                      G
For talking 'bout Jesus on that Gospel road

    C                                F
And they sang out rejoicing and the jail split wide

         C                           G
The doors busted open and they walked outside

        Am                                        
But they went back to preaching through the countryside

   F                   G          
Walking on the Gospel Road

C                              Am
Goin’ to tell the people now in Nazareth

F                                  G
He’s come to walk upon that Gospel Highway 

C                              Am       
Goin’ to tell the people now in Nazareth 

F                                  G
He’s come to walk upon that Gospel Road 

    C                         F
And into the Synagogue to road did lead

       C                                  G
To let them know the thing on which their soul must feed

     Am                                        
The time has come to help the poor and those in need

   F                        G          
The weight upon that Gospel Road

C                                   Am
Hey, won’t you come on with me from Jerusalem

F                                   G
And walking to Emmaus on that dusty highway?

C                                   Am   
Hey, won’t you come on with me from Jerusalem

F                                   G
And walking to Emmaus on that dusty road?

    C                                F
The travelling gets harder and with each rebuff

       C                        G
Some turn back because they’ve had enough

     Am                                        
But Jesus told you it was gonna be rough

   F                     G          
To walk upon His Gospel Road
