Song Collection

My heart does overflow, a goodly theme is mine; my eager tongue with joyful song does praise the King divine. Supremely fair you are, your lips with grace o’erflow; his richest blessings evermore does God on you bestow. Now gird you with your sword, O strong and mighty one, in splendid majesty arrayed, more glorious than the sun. Triumphantly ride forth for meekness, truth, and right; your arm shall gain the victory in wondrous deeds of might. Your strength shall overcome all those that hate the King, and under your dominion strong the nations you shall bring. Your royal throne, O God, forevermore shall stand; eternal truth and justice wield the scepter in your hand. Since you were sinless found, the Lord, by you confessed, anointed you with perfect joy, you are supremely blessed. Your garments breathe of myrrh and spices sweet and rare; glad strains of heav’nly music ring thro’out your palace fair. Amid your glorious train the royal daughters stand, and fairest gems bedeck your bride, the queen at your right hand. O royal bride, give heed, my holy words attend; for Christ, the King, forsake the world and ev’ry former friend.
