Tuning: E A D G B E
This is my arrangement for solo guitar of the hymn, "Fairest Lord Jesus", first printed in 1842. I've provided the lyrics of the first verse to help learn the melody. You can repeat the verse as many times as you like, though since the arrangement is fairly sparse, it may be good to add your own embellishments based on the chords I've given. The intro is optional, and based on the last three measures of the song.
