We mustn't claim to stand for our King but then deny Him by living a fleshly existence. Our King's Mighties don't shy away from the blazing searchlight of God's Word, but rather, willingly expose their souls and cry, 'Dear King, if there be anything that stands between You and me, if there be anything that shrouds Your glory, if there be anything that will weaken my sword in battle, purge it, slay it, utterly destroy it!
Soft o'er the shrouds aerial whispers breathe, That seemed but zephyrs to the train beneath.
And the wind plays on those great sonorous harps, the shrouds and masts of ships.
Oh, could we lift the future's sable shroud.
Lips to lips, mouth to mouth, Comes the speaker of the shrouds, Suck in the spirit, speak the words, Let secrets of the dead be heard.
A wise God shrouds the future in obscure darkness. [Lat. , Prudens futuri temporis exitum Caliginosa nocte premit deus. ]
A wise God shrouds the future in obscure darkness.
Clouds symbolize the veils that shroud God.
