Note: This arrangement for male quartet
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
Out of the ivory palaces
Into a world of woe
Only His great eternal love
Made my Savior go
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 have 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
|
