Sing the Psalms ♫ Memorize Psalm 45 Singing “My Heart Overflows...” | Homeschool Bible Class

Psalm 45(44) Eructavit cor meum
2 My heart overflows with noble words.
To the king I must speak the song I have made,
my tongue as nimble as the pen of a scribe.
3 You are the fairest of the children of men
and graciousness is poured upon your lips:
because God has blessed you for evermore.
4 O mighty one, gird your sword upon your thigh;
5 in splendor and state, ride on in triumph
for the cause of truth and goodness and right.
Take aim with your bow in your dread right hand.
6 Your arrows are sharp, peoples fall beneath you.
The foes of the king fall down and lose heart.
7 Your throne, O God, shall endure for ever.
A scepter of justice is the scepter of your kingdom.
8 Your love is for justice; your hatred for evil.
Therefore God, your God, has anointed you
with the oil of gladness above other kings:
9 your robes are fragrant with aloes and myrrh.
From the ivory palace you are greeted with music.
10 The daughters of kings are among your loved ones.
On your right stands the queen in gold of Ophir.

11 Listen, O daughter, give ear to my words:
forget your own people and your father’s house.
12 So will the king desire your beauty:
He is your lord, pay homage to him.
13 And the people of Tyre shall come with gifts,
the richest of the people shall seek your favor.
14 The daughter of the king is clothed with splendor,
her robes embroidered with pearls set in gold.
15 She is led to the king with her maiden companions.
16 They are escorted amid gladness and joy;
they pass within the palace of the king.
* * *
17 Sons shall be yours in place of your fathers:
you will make them rulers over all the earth.
18 May this song make your name for ever remembered.
May the peoples praise you from age to age.
