Text: | Thou art the Way: to thee alone |
Author: | Doane |
1 Thou art the Way: to thee alone
From sin and death we flee:
And he who would the Father seek,
Must seek him, Lord, by thee.
2 Thou art the Truth: thy word alone
True wisdom can impart:
Thou only canst instruct the mind,
And purity the heart.
3 Thou art the Life: the rending tomb
Proclaims thy conquering arm;
And those who put their trust in thee
Nor death nor hell shall harm.
4 Thou art the Way, the Truth, the Life:
Grant us to know that Way;
That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Which leads to endless day.
