by Author Unknown, 1677
Translated by Joseph A. Seiss, 1823-1904
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.
We sing
We sing, (to Him)
To Him we sing...
Beautiful Savior,
Lord of the nations,
Son (the blessed son of God) of God
and Son (blessed Son of mortal man) of Man!
Glory and honor,
Praise, adoration,
Now and forevermore be Thine!
Glory be thine (forevermore)
All Thine (Now and forevermore.....All Thine!)
