Default 1998 454

Hello everyone, I have a puzzle for you that has me stumped.
I have 1998 1TON crew cab with the 454 original motor that has 214,000 miles. The problem is my son was driving it to work about 6 miles from the house it died on him. He was able to start it again and get it to a parking lot and died again on him. I my self was able to get it started seemed to sound ok as long as I was on the gas. The truck would not idle, when I tired it died and was not able to get it started again. I have checked the battery and changed the plugs. I have power and fuel to the engine. Compression is low when we checked it. Checked the timing chain its got ware but is on and has not jumped. Has anyone had something like this happen to them?
Thanks
