My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; Psalm 45:1a (TM)
This wedding song is interesting in its "noble theme". It’s interesting how some themes seem common to the human experience – no matter the culture or the place in history. The groom is the prince, the knight, the warrior. The bride is the beautiful princess, dressed in a beautiful gown. The outcome is love and offspring.
Not too different from the way we still sing of love and romance today, nor of the way we protray it in movies and stories.
13 All glorious is the princess within her chamber ;
her gown is interwoven with gold.
Reading in the title that this is a wedding song, I couldn’t help but think of a bride waiting to enter the sanctuary for her wedding. Women glow on this special day. The church is Christ’s bride. Do we glow like this?
