Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring:

Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.

And all the twinkling, starry host:
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels heaven can boast.

Schönster Herr Jesu
Author: Heinrich August Hoffman von Fallersleben Hymnal: Antwort Finden in alten und neuen Liedern, in Worten zum Nachdenken und Beten #403a (2014) Lyrics: 1 Schönster Herr Jesu,
Herrscher aller Herren,
Gottes und Marien Sohn,
dich will ich lieben,
dich will ich ehren,
meiner Seelen Freud und Kron.
2 Schön sind die Wälder,
schöner sind die Felder
in der schönen Frühlingszeit.
Jesus ist schöner,
Jesus ist reiner,
der mein traurig Herz erfreut.
3 Schön ist der Monde,
schöner ist die Sonne,
schön sind auch die Sterne all.
Jesus ist feiner,
Jesus ist reiner
als dieEngel allzumal.
4 Schön sind die Blumen,
schöner sind die Menschen
in der frischen Jugendzeit;
sie müssen sterben,
müssen verderben,
Jesus bleibt in Ewigkeit.
5 Alle die Schönheit
Himmels und der Erden
ist gefaßt in dir allein.
Nichts soll mir werden
lieber auf Erden
als du, liebster Jesus mein.

Joseph A. Seiss
1823 - 1904 Translator (Optional Stanza) of "Fairest Lord Jesus" in The Hymnbook Joseph A. Seiss was born and raised in a Moravian home with the original family name of Seuss. After studying at Pennsylvania College in Gettysburg and completing his theological education with tutors and through private study, Seiss became a Lutheran pastor in 1842. He served several Lutheran congregations in Virginia and Maryland and then became pastor of St. John's Lutheran Church (1858-1874) and the Church of the Holy Communion (1874-1904), both in Philadelphia. Known as an eloquent and popular preacher, Seiss was also a prolific author and editor of some eighty volumes, which include The Last Times (1856), The Evangelical Psalmist (1859), Ecclesia Lutherana (1868), Lectures on the Gospels (1868-1872), and Lectures on the Epistles (1885). He contributed to and compiled several hymnals.

Author of "Fairest Lord Jesus" in Great Songs of the Church (Revised) In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Richard Storrs Willis
1819 - 1900 Person Name: Richard S. Willis Arranger of "SCHÖNSTER HERR JESU" in Great Songs of the Church (Revised) Richard Storrs Willis (February 10, 1819 – May 10, 1900) was an American composer, notably of hymn music. One of his hymns is "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear" (1850), with lyrics by Edmund Sears. He was also a music critic and journal editor.
Willis, whose siblings included Nathaniel Parker Willis and Fanny Fern, was born on February 10, 1819, in Boston, Massachusetts. He attended Chauncey Hall, the Boston Latin School, and Yale College where he was a member of Skull and Bones in 1841.
Willis then went to Germany, where he studied six years under Xavier Schnyder and Moritz Hauptmann. While there, he became a personal friend of Felix Mendelssohn. After returning to America, Willis served as music critic for the New York Tribune, The Albion, and The Musical Times, for which he served as editor for a time. He joined the New-York American-Music Association, an organization which promoted the work native of naturalized American composers. He reviewed the organization's first concert for their second season, held December 30, 1856, in the Musical World, as a "creditable affair, all things considered".
Willis began his own journal, Once a Month: A Paper of Society, Belles-Lettres and Art, and published its first issue in January 1862.
Willis died on May 7, 1900. His interment was located at Woodlawn Cemetery.
His works and music compilations include:
Church Chorals and Choir Studies (1850)
Our Church Music (1856)
Waif of Song (1876)
Pen and Lute (1883)

History
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions.
About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs.
