1. Our hearts are overflowing To speak a goodly thing — To tell what we're 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. 2. 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! 3. 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! 4. 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! 5. 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.
