One Truth, Many Paths

Music and Lyric by Rich Siegel

There’s one truth, but many paths to God above
There’s one truth, but many ways to claim his love
In a church or in a temple, in a mosque or in a shrine
There’s one truth, one truth, but many paths

There’s one truth, but many names for God on high
There’s one truth, but many ways to call him nigh
The Muslims call him Allah, the Lakota say Great Spirit
There’s one truth, one truth, but many names

In this world of ours the ego takes the stage
Things get misunderstood
There are those who say they ‘re right
That they have the only way
But standing in that judgment is the enemy of truth
For cultures are many, religions are many, paths are many,
God is one

There’s one truth, but many paths to God above
There’s one truth, but many ways to claim his love
His love is the same for everyone, no matter what you call him
There’s one truth, and that one truth is, God is one

In this world of ours the ego takes the stage
Things get misunderstood
There are those who say that their God is dealing in real estate
But God does not play favorites, that’s a sacrilege to truth
For cultures are many, religions are many, paths are many,
God is one

There’s one truth, but many paths to God above
There’s one truth, but many ways to claim his love
His love is the same for everyone, no matter what you call him
Dios, Gott, Allah, Ha-Shem

There’s one truth, and that one truth is, God is on
There’s one truth, and that one truth is, God is one
Shema, Col Ha-Olam, Adonai Elohainu, Adonai Echad
