1.
\nO Thou, in whose presence my soul takes delight,
\nOn whom in affliction I call;
\nMy comfort by day, and my song in the night,
\nMy hope, my salvation, my all.
\nWhere dost thou at noontide resort with thy sheep,
\nTo feed them in pastures of love?
\nFor why in the valley of death should I weep,
\nOr alone in the wilderness rove?<\/p>\n
2.
\nO why should I wander an alien from thee,
\nOr cry in the desert for bread?
\nThy foes will rejoice, when my sorrows they see,
\nAnd smile at the tears I have shed
\nYe daughters of Zion, declare, have ye seen
\nThe Star that on Israel shone?
\nSay, if in your tents my beloved has been,
\nAnd where with his flocks he is gone?<\/p>\n
3.
\nThis is my beloved, his form is divine,
\nHis vestments shed odors around;
\nThe locks on his head are as grapes on the vine,
\nWhen autumn with plenty is crowned.,
\nThe roses of Sharon, the lilies that grow
\nIn vales on the banks of the streams;
\nOn his cheeks, in the beauty of excellence blow,
\nAnd his eyes are as quivers of beams!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
