Psalm 45:2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
This is a lovely psalm which is occupied with the person of Christ.
We need to behold Him more, to worship Him more.
Fairest Lord Jesus
_______________________
Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature, — O Thou of God and man the Son, — Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor, — Thou, my soul’s glory, joy and crown.
Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands, — Robed in the blooming garb of spring; — Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer, — Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight, — And all the twinkling starry host; — Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer — Than all the angels heav’n can boast.
All fairest beauty, heavenly and earthly, — Wondrously, Jesus, is found in Thee; — None can be nearer, fairer or dearer, — Than Thou, my Savior, art to me.
Beautiful Savior! Lord of all the nations! — Son of God and Son of Man! — Glory and honor, praise, adoration, — Now and forevermore be Thine.
