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 purerThan all the angels heaven could boast.
