Hymns for Lent - Day 7

"I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me." John 14:6

 Jesus, the life, the truth, the way,

In whom I now believe,

As taught by thee in fith I pray,

Expecting to receive.

Thy will by me on earth be done,

As by the powers above,

Who always see thee on thy throne,,

And glory in thy love.

I ask in confidence the grace,

That I may do thy will,

As angels who behold thy face,

And all thy words fulfill.

Surely I shall, the sinner I,

shall serve thee without fear;

If thou my nature sanctify

In answer to my prayer.
