The Church, His Ark

His wood and water save us all
On Ark that floats through tide of time,
As water is a funeral pall
That kills our sin in Bloody brine—

Flows from His side to float the wood
Of Cross raised high on Calvary’s mount,
And Ark made from His Holy Rood
Floats on the water from His fount—

Cleans all the earth and opens gate
To Paradise where Ark will flow
And save us all from Devil’s hate
As we sail into heaven’s glow—

The light shines forth from Father’s Son,
Our Captain of this Ark He sails,
Who for us all His victory won,
Whose love for us will never fail.
