Ivory Palaces : -ghf115.mid - [Play Midi]

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. In garments glorious He will come,
   To open wide the door;
   And I shall enter my heavenly home,
   To dwell forevermore.

Chorus:

Out of the ivory palaces, into a world of woe,
Only His great, eternal love made my Savior go.
