10327. Jesus The Way

1 Come, brother, Jesus saith,
I am the way;
Here find the heav’nly path;
I am the way;
Earth, sin and sorrow flee,
Glory and gladness see,
Let Me your pattern be;
I am the way.

Refrain:
I am the way, I am the way,
Let Me your your pattern be,
I am the way.

2 Here rest, then, troubled heart,
I am the truth;
Peace let My word impart;
I am the truth;
Sin’s heavy debt is paid,
No more shall doubt pervade,
Bright hopes shall never fade;
I am the truth. [Refrain]

3 Fear not the gloomy vale;
I am the life;
My word can never fail;
I am the life;
And tho’ the night come on,
Soon all the shades be gone,
Soon will the morning dawn;
I am the life. [Refrain]
