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.
2 Fair are the meadows,
Fair are the woodlands,
Robed in flow'rs of blooming spring;
Jesus is fairer,
Jesus is purer;
He makes our sorr'wing spirit sing.
3 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.

Lord of the nations,
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor,
Praise, adoration,
Now and forevermore be thine! Topics: Creation; Creation; Creation; Devotional; Love for God; Praise; Morning Prayer Hymn; Rites of the Church Exposition of the Holy Eucharist (Including Benediction); The Liturgical Year The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ELIZABETH
