1 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. 2 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. 3 Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight, and all the twinkling starry host: Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer than all the angels heaven can boast. 4 Beautiful Savior! Lord of all the nations, Son of God and Son of Man! Glory and honor, praise, adoration, now and forevermore be thine!
