It is the golden casket, 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 shineth like a beacon Above the darkling world; It is the chart and compass That o'er life's surging sea, 'Mid mists and rocks and quicksands, Still guide, O Christ, to Thee. 4 O make Thy Church, dear Saviour, A lamp of burnished gold To bear before the nations Thy sure light as of old; O teach Thy wandering pilgrims By this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, They see Thee face to face.
