The Personal Glories and Government of Christ. Ps. 45
1
I’ll speak the honours of my King.
 
His form divinely fair;
 
None of the sons of mortal race
 
May with the Lord compare.
2
Sweet is thy speech, and heavenly grace
 
Upon thy lips is shed;
 
Thy God with blessings infinite
 
Has crowned thy sacred head.
3
Gird on thy sword, victorious Prince,
 
Ride with majestic sway;
 
Thy terror shall strike through thy foes
 
And make the world obey.
4
Thy throne, O God, for ever stands;
 
Thy word of grace shall prove
 
A peaceful sceptre in thy hands
 
To rule thy saints by love.
5
Justice and truth attend thee still,
 
But mercy is thy choice;
 
And God, thy God, thy soul shall fill
 
With most peculiar joys.
