597. Jesus, my truth, my way

Jesus, my truth, my way,
My sure, unerring light,
On thee my feeble steps I stay,
Which thou wilt guide aright.

2 My wisdom and my guide,
My Counsellor thou art;
O never let me leave thy side,
Or from thy paths depart!

3 Teach me the happy art
In all things to depend
On thee; O never, Lord, depart,
But love me to the end!

4 Let me thy witness live,
When sin is all destroyed;
And then my spotless soul receive,
And take me home to God.
