Psalm 45 (Mighty Warrior)

My heart overflows with a pleasing theme
I address my verses to the king
My tongue is like the pen of a poet

You are the fairest of the sons of men
Grace is poured upon your lips
Therefore God has blessed you forever
Take up your sword upon your side
Mighty Warrior

In your splendor and your majesty
Ride out victoriously
For the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness
May your power accomplish awesome things
May your arrows pierce the enemy
May the enemy fall down at your feet
May the enemy fall down at your feet

Your throne O God is forever and ever
You reign on high with a righteous scepter
You love righteousness and you have hated wickedness

Therefore God, Your God has anointed You
With the oil of gladness beyond your companions
Your robes are fragrant with myrrh, aloes and cassia

Strings from ivory palaces fill you with joy
Daughters of kings among your honored ladies
At your right hands stands your queen adorned in precious gold

Hear, O daughter, incline your ear
Leave behind the life you knew before
And the king will desire your beauty

He is your lord, so bow to him
The rich will seek your favor
The wealthiest of earth will bring you gifts

All glorious is the bride within her chamber
Her gown embroidered with the finest gold
In a gown of beauty she is led to the king
With her bridesmaids at her side

With rejoicing they are led along
As they enter with the throng
They come into the palace of the king
They come into the palace of the king

In place of your fathers will be your children
You'll make them princes in all the earth
I'll make your name remembered in all generations

Therefore all the nations
They will praise you forever and ever
Therefore every nation will praise you forever

Your throne, O God, is forever and ever
Your throne, O God is forever and ever
Your robes are fragrant with myrrth, aloes, and cassia
