Christ is the world's Redeemer,
The lover of the pure,
The font of heav'nly wisdom,
Our trust and hope secure,
The armor of His soldiers,
The Lord of earth and sky,
Our health while we are living,
Our life when we shall die.
I realized that this verse is an example of a rhetorical catalogue whose purpose is to illustrate Christ's omnipotence. He takes on all of the various descriptions in this verse.
