I sat down under his shadow with great delight. 202 And his fruit was sweet to my taste; And his fruit, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. He brought me to the banqueting house, His banner over me was love, (Repeat previous 2 lines). Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples, 203 For I am sick, for I am sick, for I am sick of love: I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes, and by the hinds of the field, That you stir not up, that you stir not up, that you stir not up, 204 Nor awake, awake, awake, awake, my love, till he please. The voice of my beloved, Behold! he cometh, Leaping upon the mountains, skipping, (Repeat previous line twice), Leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills. 205 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, rise up, rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone. (Repeat previous line). The rain is over, the rain is over, the rain is over and gone. For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone.

I with great joy sat in his shade, His fruit I sweet did taste. 4 He brought me to his house of wine, His love flag o'er me cast. 5 With flaggons stay, with apples me Chear up, for love-sick I 6 Under my head his left hand doth, His right above me ly. 7 O daughters of Jerusalem My love wake not nor raise; By roes and hinds of fields I you Do charge, until he please 8 The voice of my beloved one Upon the mountain's; lo He cometh leaping on the hills, He skipping comes also. 9 As roes or fawns of hinds my love Behold he stands and views Behind our wall, the windows through? Himself through lattess shews. 10 My well-beloved he did speak, And unto me did say, Arise, my love, my comely one, Come thou also away. 11 For lo the winter passed is, The rain is over gone. 12 The flow'rs appear upon the earth Birds singing time is come: And of the turtle dove the voice Is heard our land within 13 The fig-tree causeth forth to spring Her figs that yet are green. The vines also with tender grape Do give good smell, I say Arise, my love, my comely one, And do thou come away. 14 My dove in clefts of rocks close stairs, Thy voice O let me hear. And see thy face; for sweet's thy voice, Thy face is also fair. 15 Take up the foxes, take for us The little foxes here. That spoil the vines; because our vines, Most tender grapes do bear. 16 My well beloved one is mine, And I am also his; Among the lilly flow'rs also His pleasant feeding is. 17 Until day-break and shades fly hence Turn my beloved one, And like a roe or young hart be The Bether mountains on.

Author: Theodore Baker; Harriet Krauth Spaeth Meter: Irregular Appears in 101 hymnals Scripture: Song of Solomon 2:1 Lyrics: 1 Lo! how a rose e'er blooming from tender stem hath sprung, of Jesse's lineage coming, as saints of old have sung. It came a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter, when half spent was the night. 2 Isaiah 'twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind; with Mary we behold it, the Virgin Mother kind. To show God's love aright, she bore to us a Savior, when half spent was the night. 3 This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air, dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere. True man, yet very God, from sin and death he saves us and lightens every load.

By cool Siloam's shady rill

Author: Heber Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 606 hymnals Scripture: Song of Solomon 2:1 Lyrics: 1 By cool Siloam's shady rill How sweet the lily grows; How sweet the breath, beneath the hill, Of Sharon's dewy rose! 2 Lo! such the child whose early feet The paths of peace have trod, Whose secret heart, with influence sweet, Is upward drawn to God. 3 By cool Siloam's shady rill The lily must decay; The rose, that blooms beneath the hill, Must shortly fade away. 4 And soon, too soon, the wintry hour Of man's maturer age Will shake the soul with sorrow's power And stormy passion's rage. 5 O thou who givest life and breath, We seek thy grace alone, In childhood, manhood, age, and death, To keep us still thine own.
