The Cyber Hymnal ‎#8516

8516. Thou Art, O Christ, The Way

1 Thou art, O Christ, the way:
Thyself reveal to me;
And let me humbly, day by day,
Live, move and walk in Thee.

2 Thou art the truth divine:
Its fullness may I see;
Believe, and find the promise mine—
"The truth shall make you free."

3 Thou art the life of God;
By Thee the dying live:
In me diffuse Thyself abroad,
And life eternal give.

4 Thus, by Thyself, the Way,
I to the Father come;
Led by the Truth, I cannot stray:
The Life and I are one.
