Readiness for Reverence

"My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the King: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. Thou art fairer than the children of men.... Hearken... for He is thy Lord; and worship thou Him" (Psalm 45:1,2,11). "And Jesus said unto him, thou hast both seen Him, and it is He that talketh with thee. And he said, Lord I believe. And he worshiped Him" (John 9:37,38).

My hand is ready to write with the pen;
My tongue is prepared now to sing:
Fairer than all of the children of men,
Is Jesus, my Savior and King.

Hearken, my soul, and consider this fact,
That none with your God can compare.
Now worship your Lord; let nothing distract
Your heart from your Savior so fair!
