Representative Text

1 Who is this that cometh from the wilderness,
Leaning on her well-beloved’s arm,
Sweeter than the fragrant rose of Sharon,
Winning all our hearts by her charm?

Refrain:
Blessed bride of Christ, we now adore thee;
Treasure of our hearts, we hymn thy praise;
Church of God, we love thee and no other;
In thy courts we’ll worship all our days.

2 Who is she that looketh as the morning,
Clearer than the moon’s celestial light,
Brighter than the sun’s effulgent glory,
Banishing the darkness of night? [Refrain]

3 Who is she that standeth on the mountain,
Singing to our hearts a song of joy,
Fairer than the lilies of the valley,
Pure as gold refined from alloy? [Refrain]

4 Who is she, the fairest of ten thousand,
Shining with the brightness of the sun,
Queen of love, and choice one of her mother?
She, my undefiled, is but one. [Refrain]
