Beautiful Savior
|
Beautiful Savior King of creation
Son of God and Son of Man
Truly I’d love thee Truly I’d serve thee
Light of my soul, my joy, my crown
Fair are the meadows Fair are the woodlands
Robed in flowers of blooming spring
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer
He makes our sorrowing spirit sing
Fair is the sunshine Fair is the moonlight
Bright the sparkling stars on high
Jesus shines brighter Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels in the sky
Beautiful Savior Lord of the nations
Son of God and Son of Man
Glory and honor Praise adoration
Now and forevermore be thine!
Text : Gesangbuch, Münster 1677
Tr. Joseph Augustus Seiss 1823-1904
Tune : Silesian folk tune, 1842
