Spirit of the Psalms
Psalm 45 (v3)
Joseph Irons
Warm with love my heart's inditing;
Cherish'd thoughts on sacred things,
With my tongue like ready writing,
I'll extol the King of kings;
Of whose glory
Ev'ry saint and angel sings.
2 Thou of all the sons art fairest,
Yea, Thy lips are fill'd with grace;
All Thy fulness, Lord, Thou sharest
'Mongst Thy chosen, ransom'd race;
And in glory
They shall see Thee face to face.
3 O most mighty, O most blessed,
Gird Thy sword upon Thy thigh;
Be thy Majesty confessed,
Bring Thy blood-bought trophies nigh;
Let Thy glory
All Thy stubborn foes defy.
4 Truth and righteousness, and meekness,
Are the weapons of Thy hand;
All Thy foes shall know their weakness,
None can Jesus' pow'r withstand;
'Tis Thy glory
Rebels bow at Thy command.
Joseph Irons, 1847, a.
