Analysis of Wickedness over good
When you meet a wicked person
Along the narrow way
It's time to stop everything
Kneel down and begin to pray
It's like wearing two left shoes
Praying not to lose
Walking down the street
Choosing which way is best to go
The best is that God was there
To guide you and to show
That he will walk beside you
Wherever you may go
Don't forget he loves you
For he's the road you know
