283. You Are the Way; to You Alone

1 You are the way; to you alone
From sin and death we flee;
And he who would the Father seek
Your follower must be.

2 You are the truth; your Word alone
True wisdom can impart;
You only can inform the mind
And purify the heart.

3 You are the life; the rending tomb
Proclaims your conqu'ring arm;
And those who put their trust in you
Not death nor hell shall harm.

4 You are the way, the truth, the life;
Grant us that way to know,
That truth to keep, that life to win,
Whose joys eternal flow.
