Notes Text from Psalms 45:8
Lyrics My Lord has garments so wondrous fine, And myrrh their texture fills; Its fragrance reached to this heart of mine, With joy my being thrills. His life had also its sorrows sore, For aloes had a part; And when I think of the cross He bore, My eyes with teardrops start. His garments too were in cassia dipped, With healing in a touch; Each time my feet in some sin had slipped, He took me from its clutch. In garments glorious He will come, To open wide the door; And I shall enter my heav'nly home, To dwell forevermore. Chorus: Out of the ivory palaces Into a world of woe, Only His great, eternal love Made my Saviour go.
