\nO Word of God incarnate,
\nO Wisdom from on high,
\nO Truth unchanged, unchanging,
\nO Light of our dark sky:
\nWe praise you for the radiance
\nThat from the hallowed page,
\nA lantern to our footsteps,
\nShines on from age to age.<\/p>\n
2
\nThe church from her dear Master
\nReceived the gift divine,
\nAnd still that light is lifted
\nO’er all the earth to shine.
\nIt is the sacred vessel
\nWhere gems of truth are stored;
\nIt is the heavendrawn picture
\nOf Christ, the living Word.<\/p>\n
3
\nIt floateth like a banner
\nBefore God’s host unfurled;
\nIt is a shining beacon
\nAbove the darkling world.
\nIt is the chart and compass
\nThat o’er life’s surging tide,
\nMid mists and rocks and quicksands,
\nStill guides, O Christ, to Thee.<\/p>\n
4
\nO make Thy church, dear Savior,
\nA lamp of purest gold,
\nTo bear before the nations
\nYour true light as of old.
\nO teach your wandering pilgrims
\nBy this their path to trace,
\nTill, clouds and darkness ended,
\nThey see Thee face to face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
