Fairest of all the earth beside

36
				8.8.8.8.Ref.


1	Fairest of all the earth beside,
	Chiefest of all unto Thy bride,
	Fullness divine in Thee I see,
	Wonderful Man of Calvary

		That Man of Calvary
		Has won my heart from me
		And died to set me free;
		Blest Man of Calvary.

2	Granting the sinner life and peace,
	Granting the captive sweet release,
	Shedding His blood to make us free;
	Merciful Man of Calvary.

3	Giving the gifts obtained for men,
	Pouring out love beyond our ken,
	Giving us spotless purity,
	Bountiful Man of Calvary.

4	Comfort of all my earthly way,
	Jesus, I’ll meet Thee some sweet day;
	Centre of glory, Thee I’ll see,
	Wonderful Man of Calvary.
