The Way, the Truth, and the Life

By F. R. Marvin

“I AM the Way, the Truth, the Life,” Thus spake the ancient Word; “From me alike on great and small Are peace and power conferred.”

Yea, Lord, thou art that living Way, By thee men come to God, The heavenly path where oft the feet Of thy dear saints have trod.

And thou, O Lord, art Truth itself, Not formal, cold, and dead, But living Truth, whereon our souls Forevermore are fed.

And more than all in earth or heaven, Thou art the Life divine; Dear Lord, thyself to us impart, And make our lives like thine.

— Rev. F. R. Marvin, D. D.
