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. |
