Tune: O SO SO
You Are the Way
1 You are the way; to you alone
from sin and death we flee;
all those who search for God, you find
and by your grace set free.
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.

Verse 1
Loving Spirit, loving Spirit, you have chosen me to be-
You have drawn me to your wonder, you have set your sign on me.
Verse 2
Like a mother you enfold me, hold my life within your own,
Feed me with your very body, form me of your flesh and bone.
Verse 3
Like a father you protect me, teach me the discerning eye,
Hoist me up upon your shoulder, let me see the world from high.
Verse 4
Friend and lover, in your closeness I am known and held and blessed:
In your promise is my comfort, in your presence I may rest. (Repeat Verse 1)
