Hope's pathway points us heavenward
And it's there sojourners trod,
Ascending to celestial realms
That will always lead to God.
It elevates, uplifts the soul
From the highway of despair
And peaceful song is always heard,
Joyful music fills the air.
The downcast soul sheds grief's dark wrap
As they're dressed in robes of light;
And their mourning turns to dancing
As they leave behind gloom's night.
Hope's Highway all the saints will trod;
A way is provided there.
A road that leads us heavenward
Entered through the gate called prayer.

With the exception of 1 year living in Boston, Mass.,and two years in Hanau, Germany, I have lived in the historic state of Virginia all my life. I now reside in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. Though raised in a Christian home, I was in my early 20’s before making a commitment of my life to Christ. Since then I have spent many years in full-time ministry. I am currently employed as an accountant with a Christian child care center in Roanoke and also serve as the Office Manager and Scheduling Coordinator for singer and songwriter Mary Rice Hopkins who resides in California.
