O royal bride, give heed,
And to my words attend;
|: For Christ the King
forsake the world :|
And every former friend.
Thy beauty and thy grace
Shall then delight the King;
|: He only is thy rightful Lord, :|
To Him thy worship bring.
To thee, since thou art His,
Great honor shall be shown;
: The rich shall bring
their gifts to thee, :|
Thy glory they shall own.
Enthroned in royal state,
All glorious thou shalt dwell,
|: With garments fair,
inwrought with gold; |
The Church He loveth well.
And they that honor thee
Shall in thy train attend,
|: And to the palace of the King :|
Shall joyfully ascend.
O King of royal race,
Thy sons of heavenly birth,
|: Thou wilt endow with kingly gifts :|
As princes in the earth.
Thy Name shall be proclaimed
Through all succeeding days,
|: And all the nations of the earth :|
Shall give Thee endless praise.
