"I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH,
AND THE LIFE"
by HELEN STEINER RICE
I AM THE WAY, SO JUST FOLLOW ME THOUGH
THE WAY BE ROUGH AND YOU CANNOT SEE,
I AM THE TRUTH WHICH ALL MEN SEEK,
SO HEED NOT FALSE PROPHETS NOR THE
WORDS THAT THEY SPEAK.
I AM THE LIFE, AND I HOLD THE KEY
THAT OPENS THE DOOR TO ETERNITY.
AND IN THIS DARK WORLD, I AM THE LIGHT
TO A PROMISED LAND
WHERE THERE IS NO NIGHT.
THOMAS SAID TO HIM, "LORD, WE DO NOT KNOW
WHERE YOU ARE GOING; HOW CAN WE KNOW THE WAY?"
JESUS SAID TO HIM, "I AM THE WAY, AND THE TRUTH,
AND THE LIFE; NO ONE COMES TO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME."
JOHN 14:5-7
COMMIT YOUR WAY TO THE LORD,
TRUST ALSO IN HIM,
AND HE SHALL BRING IT TO PASS.
HE SHALL BRING FORTH YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS AS THE LIGHT
AND YOUR JUSTICE AS THE NOONDAY.
