Light on the Path, a Lamp about our Way (V)

(TUNE = HIGHLAND CATHEDRAL)

1. Light on the path, a lamp about our way,
wisdom to lead us through the longest day,
guiding our steps as once the Saviour trod:
here in the Scriptures is the Word of God.

2. Here may we find what Jesus did and said,
see Him in glory, risen from the dead;
claim for ourselves His cross and empty grave
sharing his life with those He came to save.

3. Truth for the seeker as the seed is sown,
bread for the hungry, strength beyond our own;
sword of the Spirit, bidding sin depart:
here is the word of life to warm our heart.

4. Here are the treasures of the realms above,
promise of mercy, never-failing love.
life more abundant by the Spirit given
Christ our companion on the road to heaven.
