“I am the way.” John 14. 6
1
Jesus is the way to God;
 
Jesus is the way to bliss;
 
In this way the church has trod,
 
Down from Adam’s day to this.
2
[Jesus is the living way;
 
All beside to ruin lead;
 
They are safe, and only they,
 
Who are one in Christ their Head.]
3
[Jesus is a holy way;
 
Leads to endless joys above;
 
Holy men, and only they,
 
Walk in this blest way of love.]
4
[Jesus is the narrow way;
 
Hagarenes have here no room;
 
Sons, and only sons are they,
 
Who can travel this way home.]
5
[Jesus is a humble way;
 
Pride and self must be brought down;
 
Nothing like a beast of prey
 
Ever can in this way run.]
6
[Jesus is the way of strength;
 
Yet the strong this way can’t come;
 
And the Lord will prove at length,
 
Weaklings have the victory won.]
7
[Jesus is the way of peace,
 
Paved from end to end with love;
 
Yes, this way abounds with grace,
 
And the needy it approve.]
8
All a helpless soul can need,
 
All a faithful God can give,
 
In this way is to be had;
 
Here the hungry eat and live.
