I was thinking that some of you may not be familiar with this old hymn that we grew up singing in church in Georgia. This song was the inspiration for my blog title.
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.
In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s my stay;
He tells me every care on Him to roll.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
by William Hays and Charles Fry

I love singing this song in church, thanks for sharing.
One of my favorites....I can almost hear Charles Worley singing bass!
I grew up singing this beautiful old hymn, too - and we still sing it now and then. It's a beautiful word picture of our Lord.
It is a wonderful song. I have not heard before now. Thanks for sharing it and God bless you Karen.
I know this song and enjoy singing it. Hope you had a great day!
