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