“I’m Using My Bible for a Roadmap” is a gospel song credited to Don Reno and the songwriter Charlie Schroeder. Don Reno and Red Smiley recorded it in the early 1950s.
The song casts the Christian life as a journey by road, with the Bible as the map. There will be no detours or rough roads in heaven, the lyric promises; the believer follows the scripture as a traveler follows a chart, with heaven as the final stop.
The song became a bluegrass gospel standard.
