Our hearts are overflowing
To speak a goodly thing—
To tell what we’ve experienced
Of our exalted King.
Our tongues as pens are ready
We’ve volumes here to “write”—
The glories of our Bridegroom
Our Lord and our delight.
Lord Jesus
Thou art fairer
Than all the sons of men;
Thy goodness is transcendent—
Hallelujah! Amen!
Upon Thy lips most holy
Abundant grace is poured;
Forever God has blessed Thee
Our gracious
glorious Lord!
Thou art the mighty Warrior
Who rides to victory;
In Thy majestic glory
Ride on triumphantly!
The peoples fall beneath Thee—
The conquering One Thou art.
Thine arrows in their sharpness
Have entered Satan’s heart!
Thy throne
O God
forever
And ever shall endure;
The sceptre of Thy kingdom
Upon the earth is sure.
’Tis with the oil of gladness
God has anointed Thee
Above all Thy companions—
How worthy there to be!
Of aloes
myrrh
and cassia
Do all Thy garments smell:
Thy death and resurrection
Do all Thy deeds forthtell.
Out of the local churches
Shall praises make Thee glad
And praises upon praises
Thy joyful saints shall add.
