Teaching Time

Tune: Ratisbon

(\'Christ whose glory fills the skies\')

********

Christ be our Teacher, our guide

By your Spirit, still reside

In our hearts, your wisdom give

So we good know how to live

Not of human cleverness

Not as human thoughts is this

 

Spiritual wisdom inpart

Directing our every part

You who told stories simple

And in your words parables

They revealed to us these days

Not dark sayings, but clear ways

 

Having you the light of life

Bringing peace to human strife

Inspire hearts and minds, mankind

That they you will may know, find

Seek to bring your kingdom here

That on earth it shall appear

 

So your will on earth be done

Corporate, and by each one

Redeeming the time, for see

Days of troubles, conflicts be

Your word to our path a light

Lamp to our feet, shining bright
