1 Come, my way, my truth, my life,
such a way as gives us breath,
such a truth as ends all strife,
such a life as killeth death.
2 Come, my light, my feast, my strength,
such a light as shows a feast,
such a feast as mends in length,
such a strength as makes his guest.
3 Come, my joy, my love, my heart,
such a joy as none can move,
such a love as none can part,
such a heart as joys in love.
