Without the way you cannot go,
without the truth you cannot know,
without the life you cannot live.
I am the Way which you must follow;
the Truth which you must believe,
the Life for which you must hope.
I am the safe Way,
the infallible Truth,
the Life without end.
I am the straightest Way,
the sovereign Truth,
the true life,
the blessed Life,
Life uncreated.
If you remain in My way,
you shall know truth,
and the truth will make you free,
and you shall lay hold
of eternal life.
~Thomas à Kempis, Imitation of Christ (Bk 3, Ch 56)
Speed my steps along Your path,
according to Your will, O God!
