Miles To Go
by Allison Durham Speer

Verse one:
From the swinging of the cradle to the closing of the grave
We do what we are able to be strong and free and brave
We get weary from the struggle that we face from sun to sun
There is triumph and there is trouble but until the journey's done

Chorus:
There are roads to travel wide and narrow, valleys low and steep
Let our hearts be swift and straight as an arrow
We've got miles to go before we sleep
We've got miles to go before we sleep

Verse two:
Let each father tell his children of the joy that lies ahead
For the road that now seems endless ends all to soon instead
So let's glory in the going tho' the traveling is hard
'Cause there's comfort just in knowing that we're already come this far

Chorus:
There are roads to travel wide and narrow, valleys low and steep
Let our hearts be swift and straight as an arrow
We've got miles to go before we sleep
We've got miles to go before we sleep

Bridge:
The path from earth to glory is much like the thorns of a rose
There may be pain but beauty lies closer than we suppose, and

Chorus:
There are roads to travel wide and narrow, valleys low and steep
Let our hearts be swift and straight as an arrow
We've got miles to go before we sleep
We've got miles to go before we sleep
