It is the chart and compass That o'er life's surging sea, Amid the rocks and quicksands, Still guides, O Christ, to Thee. 3 O make Your Church, dear Savior, A lamp of burnished gold To bear before the nations Your true light as of old; O teach Your wand'ring pilgrims By this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see You face to face.
