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!

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.
Writers of scripture have tried to tell of the glory and beauty of the Heavenly Bridegroom using such metaphors: Lily of the Valley, Bright and Morning Star, Rose of Sharon, Fairest of ten thousand, Fairer than all the fair. Yet the truth is that human tongue simply cannot adequately describe the beauty of Him who loved and gave himself for us. Though in His flesh there was "no beauty that we should desire him"(Is. 53:2-3), yet when viewed through the eye of faith He is altogether lovely! "Glory and honor, praise, adoration now and forevermore be Thine"!!!
This is one of my most favourite hymns which I hum or sing every day and it just comes on effortlessly. Who is this one so radiant; so beautiful; so loving, pure and sweet yet loves a vile sinner like me! I just love Him and give myself to Him unreservedly for His economy!
JESUS!!! Humble, pure, good, blessed is that Gallilean to me!!!! You deserve honor, glory, power, praise and all my gratitude for saving me, the vile sinner I was. Thanks a million for Your Mercy.
The more I sing this song, the more I sense Him within my spirit. He is the dearest and most wonderful Person. He actually does meet every need I have. He is my life, my living, my health and my provision. Is there any one or any thing that can match Him? Obviously not! The more I experience Him and His love to me the more I love Him. Thank God for hymns like this one that point us to Him.
This hymn came to mind this morning with the repeated use of the word "fair". In the Song of Songs this word "fair" is also repeated about ten times, having the meaning of exceedingly beautiful. Isn't this a great word to describe the One we love! He is exceedingly beautiful! In the Song of Songs the Bridegroom is firstly called fair by His lover; then later in the song the bride is called fair by her Beloved. As we are joined to Him we bear His fairness, His exceeding beauty! The Bride displays the exceeding beauty of her Bridegroom! This mutual love is exceedingly beautiful!
The second part of verse 2 says, "He has no attracting form nor majesty that we should look upon Him, / Nor beautiful appearance that we should desire Him." Very few people would pay any particular attention to a tender plant. In one sense, the Lord Jesus is beautiful. There are a number of hymns in our hymnal concerning His beauty (Hymns, #170-178). However, in another sense, Jesus is not beautiful. He has no beautiful appearance that we should desire Him.
