Verse 1

They tell us that we're all naïve

They try to deceive, tell us what to believe

The fatal plan that they have up their sleeve

Was routed from love that was just misconceived

They keep You in a hiding place

A divided space just to hide Your grace

But this suppression is no more than a digression

Holding back the answer that can solve any question



Chorus

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

Your love I will never hide

I will shout Your name

No matter what they claim

One day every tongue will confess

But while there is still time left

I will share Your grace

Erase the hiding place



Verse 2

And in every hurting place

There's an empty space with a needed brace

The gift is free, no payment to be made

The price is already paid

All we need is to be wise

Open our eyes, lift our hands for the prize

As we take the hand that gives us hope

As we helplessly slide down life's slippery slopes



Chorus

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

Your love I will never hide

I will shout Your name

No matter what they claim

One day every tongue will confess

But while there is still time left

I will share Your grace

Erase the hiding place



Bridge

And through the day and night

I will shine the light

And when things get tight

The light will just ignite

And despite their spite

I will shine the light

And even if they bite

It will be bright

Chorus

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

Your love I will never hide

I will shout Your name

No matter what they claim

One day every tongue will confess

But while there is still time left

I will share Your grace

Erase the hiding place
