Eatnaman Vuelie - Frode Fjelheim

Details

Description

This Norwegian and Sami traditional choral song is from the "ACDA 2011 National Convention Cantus" album. It combines "Fairest Lord Jesus" with "Eatnamen Vuelie," or Song of the Earth, meaning, "The earth is wonderful." I first heard part of this song watching Disney's new movie, "Frozen," and wanted to hear more.
Fairest Lord Jesus lyrics:
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 heaven 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 forever more be Thine.
