Beautiful Savior, King of creation,
Son of God and Son of Man!

Fair are the meadows, fair are the woodlands,
robed in flow'rs of blooming spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
he makes our sorrowing spirit sing.
robed in flow'rs 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.
bright the sparkling stars on high;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
than all the angels in the sky.

now and forevermore be thine!
