Fairest Lord Jesus
Fairest Lord Jesus, ruler of all nature,
O Son of God to earth come down;
You will I cherish, You will I honor,
O 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 hosts:
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer,
than all the angels heaven can boast.
