By night as on my bed I lay
Appears in 3 hymnals Hymnal Title: The Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithully translated into English metre Lyrics: The Church:
1 By night as on my bed I lay,
when I awak'd,I sought
For the Beloved of my soul;
I sought, but found Him not!
2 Now I'll arise, and in the streets,
and all broad places round
Him I will seek whom my soul loves:
I sought, but had not found.
3 The watchmen, as I went about
the city, met with me;
Of them I ask'd; HIM whom my soul
most loves, O did you see?
4 But 'twas a very little space,
that I from them had past,
E're Him whom my soul loves I found,
I seiz'd and held him fast
Nor would I let Him go till I
had brought Him in to see
My mother's house, the chamber too
who had conceived me.
5 O daughters of Jerusalem,
wake not my Love, nor raise;
By roes and hinds of all the fields,
I charge you, till He please.
Daughters of Jerusalem:
6 Who's she that from the desart comes,
as incense-pillars rise?
Perfum'd with myrrh and frankincense,
and powders all of spice?
7 Behold the stately bed of rest
which is King Solomon's,
And round it threescore valiant men,
of Isra'ls valiant sons,
8 So dreadful to their enemies,
all warriours skill'd in fight:
Their ready swords girt on their thigh,
because of fear by night.
9 Of wood of Lebanon the King
a stately couch has made:
10 Its pillars are of silver form'd,
gold for its bottom laid.
Of purple is the canopy,
arch'd over all above,
For daughters of Jerusalem
the midst ks spread with love.
11 O Zion's daughters, go ye forth,
with rais'd delight behold
King Solomon all glorious with
his diadem of gold.
The crown which on his nuptial day
his mother on him plac'd;
The day when gladness fills his heart
and all around are bless'd. Scripture: Song of Solomon 3

Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament #308 (1742) Hymnal Title: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament First Line: My soul's love I by night did seek Lyrics: 1 My soul's love I by night did seek,,
As I on bed did ly.
Although that I for him did seek,
Yet find him could not I.
2 Now I'll arise, and in the streets,
Broad streets of city round
I will him seek whom my soul loves:
I sought but not him found.
3 As they about the city went,
The watchmen found out me:
To whom I said, him whom my soul
Doth love, O did you see?
4 It was but as a little space,
That I from them had past,
But whom my soul did love, I found,
And then I held him fast
I would not suffer him to go,
Till I had brought him in
My mother's house, the chamber where
Conceived I had been.
5 O daughters of Jerusalem,
My love wake not, nor raise,
By roes and hinds of field, I you
Do charge, until he please.
6 Who's this from desart that ascends,
Like smoky pillars tall,
Perfum'd with myrrh and frankincense,
'Bove merchant's powders all?
7 Behold his bed magnificent.
The which is Solomon's:
About it threescore valiant men,
Of Isra'ls valiant ones,
8 They all of them do handle swords,
They are expert in fight:
Each man his sword hath on his thigh,
For terror in the night.
9 King Solomon made himself a bed
Of wood of Lebanon.
10 It's pillars he of silver made;
Gold was its bottom on.
Of purple was the covering,
The which was spread above,
For daughters of Jerusalem,
The midst was pav'd with love.
11 Ye daughters who in Sion dwell,
Go forth and now behold
King Solomon adorned with
His diadem of gold.
Wherewith on his espousals day
His mother him hath crown'd,
And in the day wherein his heart
With gladness did abound. Scripture: Song of Solomon 3 Languages: English
