DESCRIPTION
What's Down The Road?" - First of all it depends which road we are on. Are we on the broad road that leads to eternal death or are we on the narrow road that leads to everlasting life? (Mat 7:13,14). Secondly, It is not within man's ability to “direct his own steps” through this life! (Jer. 10:23). What's down the road in this life for the person following God's instructions compared to the one who doesn't? (Some thoughts for the young, married, parents & local churches) – You can listen to this lesson and view the charts on our website: http://w65stchurchofchrist.org/coc/

A Hundred Years From Now Tell me friend what will it matter
Say a hundred years from now If you owned ten thousand acres Or just one old broken plough
If you bought your suits in Paris And your shoes in Italy Or your clothes were made in patches Like the bed quilts used to be
But theres more to life than livin More for those who will believe More store laid up in Heaven If the Saviour we receive
Whether we are lost forever Or to Jesus here we bow This is what will make the difference In a hundred years from now

A Hundred Years From Now Tell me friend what will it matter
Say a hundred years from now If you owned ten thousand acres Or just one old broken plough
If you bought your suits in Paris And your shoes in Italy Or your clothes were made in patches Like the bed quilts used to be
But theres more to life than livin More for those who will believe More store laid up in Heaven If the Saviour we receive
Whether we are lost forever Or to Jesus here we bow This is what will make the difference In a hundred years from now

Whatrsquos Down The RoadA Hundred Years From Now
A Hundred Years From Now Tell me friend what will it matter
Say a hundred years from now If you owned ten thousand acres Or just one old broken plough
If you bought your suits in Paris And your shoes in Italy Or your clothes were made in patches Like the bed quilts used to be
But theres more to life than livin More for those who will believe More store laid up in Heaven If the Saviour we receive
Whether we are lost forever Or to Jesus here we bow This is what will make the difference In a hundred years from now

Say a hundred years from now If you owned ten thousand acres Or just one old broken plough
If you bought your suits in Paris And your shoes in Italy Or your clothes were made in patches Like the bed quilts used to be

Whether we are lost forever Or to Jesus here we bow This is what will make the difference In a hundred years from now

Whatrsquos Down The RoadA Hundred Years From Now
A Hundred Years From Now Tell me friend what will it matter
Say a hundred years from now If you owned ten thousand acres Or just one old broken plough
If you bought your suits in Paris And your shoes in Italy Or your clothes were made in patches Like the bed quilts used to be
But theres more to life than livin More for those who will believe More store laid up in Heaven If the Saviour we receive
Whether we are lost forever Or to Jesus here we bow This is what will make the difference In a hundred years from now

LORD with your possessions And with the firstfruits of all your increase
Proverbs 31-shy‐12 (NKJV) 10 So your barns will be filled with plenty And your vats will overflow with new wine 11 My son do not despise the chastening of the
LORD Nor detest His correction 12 For whom the LORD loves He
corrects Just as a father the son in whom he delights
