It is the sacred vessel where gems of truth are stored; it is the heaven-drawn picture of Christ, the living Word. 3 It floateth like a banner before God’s host unfurled; it is a shining beacon above the darkling world. It is the chart and compass that o’er life’s surging tide, mid mists and rocks and quicksands, Still guides, O Christ, to Thee. 4 O make Thy church, dear Savior, a lamp of purest gold, to bear before the nations your true light as of old. O teach your wandering pilgrims by this their path to trace, till, clouds and darkness ended, they see Thee face to face. Topics: Holy Scriptures Scripture: Proverbs 6:23 Tune Title: MUNICH
