Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.
Psalm 32:7
One song of songs the sweetest,
Once learnt thou still repeatest,
And singest, Christian, o’er and o’er –
Earth cannot learn its measure,
This song of heavenly treasure,
Of grace abounding evermore!
Of one great LOVE it telleth,
Which every grief expelleth
Like mist before the morning sun;
Farwell to all they sorrow,
Thy cares about to-morrow,
When thou canst sing this sweetest song.
