Upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir. The king’s daughter is all glorious within her clothing is wrought gold. Hearken, O daughter, and consider and incline thine ear. Forget all thine own people, and thy father’s house, so shall the king greatly desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him. Psalms 45:10-14.

Observe, O my soul! that thy celestial bridegroom does not require any ornament, merit, worthiness, and beauty of thy own: no, he will wash thee himself with his blood, he will adorn thee and make thee truly amiable to himself, and to his Father. O! sweet and eternal truth! “He has loved and washed me also for my sins in his own blood.” He has, and I have in him, a more than angelical beauty. O! the unspeakable fairness of this bridegroom and his spouse! Why should I not cleave to him alone, and love him above all others?

The King of saints, how fair his face,
Adorned with majesty and grace!
He comes with blessings from above,
And wins the nations to his love.
At his right hand our eyes behold
The queen arrayed in purest gold;
The world admires her heavenly dress,
Her robe of joy and righteousness.
He forms her beauties like his own,
He calls and seats her near his throne:
Fair stranger, let thine heart forget
The idols of thy native state.
So shall the King the more rejoice,
In thee the favorite of his choice;
Let him be loved and yet adored,
For he’s thy Maker and thy Lord.
