Fairest Lord Jesus

Fairest Lord Jesus!

Ruler of all nature!

O Thou of God and man the Son!

Thee will I cherish

Thee will I honor

Thou

my soul’s glory

joy

and crown!

Fair are the meadows

Fairer still the woodlands

Robed in the blooming garb of spring;

Jesus is fairer

Jesus is purer

Who makes the woeful heart to sing!

Fair is the sunshine

Fairer still the moonlight

And all the twinkling starry host;

Jesus shines brighter

Jesus shines purer

Than all the angels heav’n can boast!

All fairest beauty

Heavenly and earthly

Wondrously

Jesus

is found in Thee;

None can be nearer

Fairer

or dearer

Than Thou my Savior art to me.
