You are my King
(Ephesians 5:22-33; 1 Peter 3:1-7)
1
Let him kisse me with the kisses of his for thy loue is better then wine.
2
Because of the sauour of thy good ointments thy name is as an ointment powred therefore the virgins loue thee.
3
Drawe we will runne after the King hath brought me into his we will reioyce and be glad in we will remember thy loue more then the righteous do loue thee.
4
I am blacke, O daughters of Ierusalem, but comely, as the tentes of Kedar, and as the curtaines of Salomon.
Do not look down on me!
5
Regard ye me not because I am for the sunne hath looked vpon mee. The sonnes of my mother were angry against they made me the keeper of ye but I kept not mine owne vine.
6
Shewe me, O thou, whome my soule loueth, where thou feedest, where thou liest at for why should I be as she that turneth aside to the flockes of thy companions?
Where are you?
7
If thou knowe not, O thou the fairest among women, get thee foorth by the steps of the flocke, and feede thy kiddes by the tents of the shepheards.
8
I haue compared thee, O my loue, to the troupe of horses in the charets of Pharaoh.
You are beautiful!
9
Thy cheekes are comely with rowes of stones, and thy necke with chaines.
10
We will make thee borders of golde with studdes of siluer.
11
Whiles the King was at his repast, my spikenard gaue the smelll thereof.
12
My welbeloued is as a bundle of myrrhe vnto he shall lie betweene my breasts.
13
My welbeloued is as a cluster of camphire vnto me in the vines of Engedi.
14
My loue, beholde, thou art beholde, thou art thine eyes are like the doues.
15
My welbeloued, beholde, thou art faire and also our bed is greene:
16
The beames of our house are cedars, our rafters are of firre.
