The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns ‎#CXVIII

CXVIII. I am, saith Christ, the Way

1 I am, saith Christ, the Way.
Now if we credit him,
All other Paths must lead astray
How fair soe'er they seem.

2 I am, saith Christ, The Truth.
Then all that lacks this Test,
Proceed it from an Angel's Mouth,
Is but a Lie at best.

3 I am faith CHIST, the Life.
Let this be seen by Faith,
It follows without further Strife,
That all besides is Death.

4 If what those Words aver,
The Holy Ghost apply;
The simplest Christian shall not err,
Nor be deceiv'd nor die.
