| | Psalm 45-Part 2 |
| 1. | The queen in gold of Ophir |
| | At Thy right hand doth stand; |
| | King's daughters are the women |
| | Who fill Thy honored band. |
| | The church in all her glory |
| | Shall match her glorious King, |
| | And all the saints, the women, |
| | Thy likeness there shall bring. |
| 2. | O daughter, now consider, |
| | E'en now incline thine ear: |
| | Remember not thy people |
| | And all thine own things here. |
| | Thy beauty then shall blossom- |
| | 'Twill be the King's desire; |
| | For He thy worthy Lord is, |
| | Thy worship to inspire. |
| 3. | The daughter's glorious garments |
| | Are made of inwrought gold- |
| | Within the inner palace, |
| | How wondrous to behold! |
| | The glory of God's nature |
| | Is given her to wear, |
| | That all His holy being |
| | She may in life declare. |
| 4. | In clothing too embroidered |
| | She'll to the King be led, |
| | In that fine linen garment |
| | To be exhibited. |
| | 'Tis by the Spirit's stitching |
| | That Christ in us is wrought, |
| | And with this glorious garment |
| | We'll to the King be brought. |
| 5. | What gladness and rejoicing |
| | When we the King shall see! |
| | We'll shout His worthy praises |
| | Through all eternity. |
| | And though the King we worship |
| | Or glory in the Queen, |
| | In all this blest enjoyment |
| | The glory goes to Him. |
