While I the King's loud praise rehearse

Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 45 Lyrics: 1 While I the King's loud Praise rehearse, indited by my Heart, My Tongue is like the Pen of him that writes with ready Art. 2 How matchless is thy Form, O King! thy Mouth with Grace o'erflows; Because fresh Blessings God on thee eternally bestows. 3 Gird on thy Sword, most mighty Prince; and, clad in rich Array, With glorious Ornaments of Pow'r, majestic Pomp display. 4 Ride on in State, and still protect the Meek, the Just, and True; Whilst thy Right-hand with swift Revenge does all thy Foes pursue. 5 How sharp thy Weapons are to them that dare thy Pow'r oppose! Down, down they fall, while thro' their Heart the feather'd Arrow goes. 6 But thy firm Throne, O God, is fix'd for ever to endure; Thy Sceptre's Sway shall always last, by righteous Laws secure. 7 Because thy Heart, by Justice led, did upright Ways approve, And hated still the crooked Paths where wand'ring Sinners rove; Therefore did God, thy God, on thee the Oil of Gladness shed; And has above thy Fellows round, advanc'd thy lofty Head. 8 With Cassia, Aloes, and Myrrh, thy Royal Robes abound; Which, from the stately Wardrobe brought, spread grateful Odours round. 9 Among the honourable Train did princely Virgins wait; The Queen was plac'd at thy Right-hand, in golden Robes of State. Part II 10 But thou, O Royal Bride, give Ear, and to my Words attend: Forget thy native Country now, and ev'ry former Friend. 11 So shall thy Beauty charm the King, nor shall his Love decay: For he is now become thy Lord; to him due Rev'rence pay. 12 The Tyrian Matrons, rich and proud, shall humble Presents make; And all the wealthy Nations sue, thy Favour to partake. 13 The King's fair Daughter's beauteous Soul all inward Graces fill; Her Raiment is of purest Gold, adorn'd with costly Skill. 14 She in her nuptial Garments dress'd, with Needles richly wrought, Attended by her Virgin Train, shall to the King be brought. 15 With all the State of solemn Joy the Triumph moves along; Till, with wide Gates, the Royal Court receives the pompous Throng. 16 Thou, in thy Royal Father's room, must princely Sons expect: Whom thou to diff'rent Realms may'st send, to govern and protect: 17 Whilst this my Song to future Times transmits thy glorious Name; And makes the world with one Consent thy lasting Praise proclaim.

Psalm 45: My heart inditing is

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 45 First Line: My heart inditing is Lyrics: 1My heart inditing is good matter in a song: I speak the things that I have made, which to the King belong: My tongue shall be as quick, his honour to indite, As is the pen of any scribe that useth fast to write. 2Thou’rt fairest of all men; grace in thy lips doth flow: And therefore blessings evermore on thee doth God bestow. 3Thy sword gird on thy thigh, thou that art most of might: Appear in dreadful majesty, and in thy glory bright. 4For meekness, truth, and right, ride prosp’rously in state; And thy right hand shall teach to thee things terrible and great. 5Thy shafts shall pierce their hearts that foes are to the King; Whereby into subjection the people thou shalt bring. 6Thy royal seat, O Lord, for ever shall remain: The sceptre of thy kingdom doth all righteousness maintain. 7Thou lov’st right, and hat’st ill; for God, thy God, most high, Above thy fellows hath with th’ oil of joy anointed thee. 8Of myrrh and spices sweet a smell thy garments had, Out of the iv’ry palaces, whereby they made thee glad. 9And in thy glorious train kings’ daughters waiting stand; And thy fair queen, in Ophir gold, doth stand at thy right hand. 10O daughter, take good heed, incline, and give good ear; Thou must forget thy kindred all, and father’s house most dear. 11Thy beauty to the King shall then delightful be: And do thou humbly worship him, because thy Lord is he. 12The daughter then of Tyre there with a gift shall be, And all the wealthy of the land shall make their suit to thee. 13The daughter of the King all glorious is within; And with embroideries of gold her garments wrought have been. 14She cometh to the King in robes with needle wrought; The virgins that do follow her shall unto thee be brought. 15They shall be brought with joy, and mirth on ev’ry side, Into the palace of the King, and there they shall abide. 16And in thy fathers’ stead, thy children thou may’st take, And in all places of the earth them noble princes make. 17I will shew forth thy name to generations all: Therefore the people evermore to thee give praises shall.

The nations see and hail afar The light in Judah shining. Thou David's Son of Jacob's race, My Bridegroom and my King of Grace, For Thee my heart is pining. Lowly, Holy, Great and glorious, Thou victorious Prince of graces, Filling all the heav'nly places. 2 O highest joy by mortals won, True Son of God and Mary's Son, Thou high-born King of ages! Thou art my heart's most beauteous Flow'r, And Thy blest Gospel's saving pow'r My raptured soul engages. Thou mine, I Thine; Sing hosanna! Heav'nly manna Tasting, eating, Whilst Thy love in songs repeating. 3 Now richly to my waiting heart, O Thou, my God, deign to impart The grace of love undying. In Thy blest body let me be, E'en as the branch is in the tree, Thy life my life supplying. Sighing, Crying. For the savor Of Thy favor; Resting never, Till I rest in Thee forever. 4 A pledge of peace from God I see When Thy pure eyes are turned to me To show me Thy good pleasure. Jesus, Thy Spirit and Thy Word, Thy body and Thy blood, afford My soul its dearest treasure. Keep me Kindly In Thy favor, O my Savior! Thou wilt cheer me; Thy Word calls me to draw near Thee. 5 Thou, mighty Father, in Thy Son Didst love me ere Thou hadst begun This ancient world's foundation. Thy Son hath made a friend of me, And when in spirit Him I see, I joy in tribulation. What bliss Is this! He that liveth To me giveth Life forever; Nothing me from Him can sever. 6 Lift up the voice and strike the string. Let all glad sounds of music ring In God's high praises blended. Christ will be with me all the way, Today, tomorrow, every day, Till trav'ling days be ended. Sing out, Ring out Triumph glorious, O victorious, Chosen nation; Praise the God of your salvation. 7 Oh, joy to know that Thou, my Friend, Art Lord, Beginning without end, The First and Last, Eternal! And Thou at length--O glorious grace!-- Wilt take me to that holy place, The home of joys supernal. Amen, Amen! Come and meet me! Quickly greet me! With deep yearning, Lord, I look for Thy returning.

A Song of Loves

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 45 First Line: Good matter springs up in my heart Lyrics: [1 Part, Address to CHRIST] 1 Good matter springs up in my heart; my words respect the King; And ready as a writer's pen my tongue his praise to sing. 2 O fairer than the sons of men; what wondrous grace we see Pour'd on thy lips; GOD therefore hat for ever blessed Thee. 3 Thy conqu'ring sword, O mighty one, gird Thou upon thy thigh; With glorious magnificence and comely majesty; 4 Ride prosp'rous on the word of truth, meekness and righteousness; And thy right hand shall wonders show of terror and of grace. 5 Within the hearts of the King's foes, thine arrows sharp shall be; Whereby the people overcome, shall fall down under Thee. 6 Thy universal throne, O GOD, ever and ever is; The scepter of thy kingdom sway'd in perfect righteousness. 7 Thou lovest right, and hatest ill; so GOD thy God in love Anointed Thee with oil of joy thy fellow-kings above. 8 Thy fragrant robes with aloes, myrrh, and cassia, which Thee clad, Brought from the iv'ry palaces, conspire to make Thee glad. 9 In thy bright circles round thy view kings daughters happy stand; And the fair Queen in ophir-gold appears at thy right hand. [2 Part, Address to the CHURCH.] 10 O daughter, hearken and behold, do thou incline thine ear; See thine own people thou forget and father's house so dear. 11 Then will thy beauty to the King, still more delightful be: yet must thou humbly worship Him, because thy Lord is He. 12 The daughter of rich Tyre shall soon her presents bring to thee; And riches people seek that they may in thy favour be. 13 But the King's Daughter is within all glorious to behold; And all her robes are bright'ned with embroideries of gold. 14 Thus to the king in royal robes, with needles richly wrought, and fellow-virgins in her train she shall to Thee be brought. 15 With gladness and increasing joy, they'r brought along in state, Till all exulting enter in the royal palace gate. 16 In their stead who thy fathers are thy lovely sons shall be; Whom thou mayst place in all the earth in princely dignity. 17 By this my song in ages all, I will transmit thy name, And make the world with one consent thy endless praise proclaim.
