Fairest Lord Jesus


Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
Son of God and Mary's Son,
Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honour,
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 heaven can boast.

Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
Son of God and Mary's Son:
Glory and honour, praise, adoration,
Ever be Thine, and Thine alone.
