459   As the Bridegroom to His Chosen




[1]
As the bridegroom to his chosen
as the king to his realm
As the keep unto the castle
as the pilot to the helm
So Lord art Thou to me.

[2]
As the fountain in the garden
as the candle in the dark
As the treasure in the coffer
as the manna in the ark
So Lord art Thou to me.

[3]
As the ruby in the setting
as the honey in the comb
As the light within the lantern
as the father in the home
So Lord art Thou to me.

[4]
As the sunshine in the heavens
as the image in the glass
As the fruits up in the fig tree
as the dew upon the grass
So Lord art Thou to me.
