Representative Text

1 Lily of the Valley,
Bright and Morning Star,
Fairest of ten thousand,
Rose of Sharon rare!
King of radiant glory,
Prince of perfect Peace!
Jesus, Name beyond compare.

Refrain:
Savior, Savior! Heaven blest,
Light of Life, Eternal rest!
Lily of the Valley,
Bright and Morning Star,
Jesus, name beyond compare.

2 Fount of ev’ry blessing,
Flowing free as air,
Living Water, Healing
Sin and dark despair,
Patient Burden Bearer,
Comforter, Relief! [Refrain]

3 Vine of faith and beauty,
Joyous fruit ye bear,
Door to life eternal,
All may enter there,
Way of verdant pasture,
Path of Perfect love. [Refrain]

4 Heaven’s Great Physician
For all grief and care,
For each tear of sorrow,
Balm will e’en prepare.
Victor over Death’s string;
Conq’ror of the Grave. [Refrain]
