The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 ‎#160b

160b. There is one way, and only one

1 There is one way, and only one,
Out of our gloom, and sin, and care,
To that fair land where shines no sun
Because the face of God is there.

2 There is one truth, the truth of God,
That Christ came down from heaven to show,
One life that His redeeming blood
Has won for all His saints below.

3 The lore, from Philip once concealed,
To us is fully known in Christ;
In Him the Father is revealed,
And all our longing is sufficed.

4 And still unwavering faith holds sure
The words that James wrote sternly down;
Except we labour and endure,
We cannot win the heavenly crown.

5 O Way divine, through gloom and strife,
Bring us Thy Father's face to see;
O heavenly Truth, O precious Life,
At last, at last, to rest in Thee.

Amen.
