    • I am the Light
    but you do not see Me

    I am the Way
    but you do not follow Me.

    I am the Truth
    but you do not believe Me.

    I am the Life
    and you do not seek Me.

    I am the Master
    but you do not listen to Me.

    I am your great Friend
    except you don't love Me.

    I am your God
    and you do not pray to Me

    If you are unhappy
    do not reproach Me!

    • "Calvary", not "cavalry".

    "Calvary" is from the Latin calvarium, meaning "skull".

    "Cavalry" is from the French cheval, meaning "horse" (as in mounted soldiers).
