‘Fairest of all the earth beside’

1. Unnathanaam en daivame mannithin sthaapanathinum
   Munname enne kanditho mannavaneshu naadhanil
   
   Athbhutha snehame ennennum paadum njaan
   Enne veendeduthathaam athbhutha snehame!
    
2. Kaalithozhuthil heenanaay kaalvary krooshil ekanaay
   Kaalkaram kaarirumbilaay kaanunnithenthor aascharyam!
    
3. Iprapanchathin naayaka! enpraayaschitha yaagamaay
   Nin praanan krooshil nalkiyo ipraaniyenne neduvaan!
    
4. Athbhutham athyagaadhame! apprameyam avarnnyame!
   Immahaa snehamennume nithyayugam njaan paadume

Meaning:

1.
O my exalted God,
Even before You created this world,
You already knew me
And had Your loving purpose for me,
O Lord Jesus, my King.

Amazing love!
I will sing of it forever—
Amazing love
That redeemed me and made me Your own!

2.
I see You, who came in humility
And lay in a lowly manger,
And later stood alone upon the cross at Calvary,
With Your hands and feet pierced
By cruel iron nails.
What an amazing sight!

3.
O Lord of the whole universe,
You became the sacrifice for my sin.
Did You really give Your life
Upon the cross
To save a helpless sinner like me?

4.
What amazing love—so deep,
So vast, beyond all measure,
So great that words cannot describe it!
I will sing of this wonderful love
Forever and throughout eternity.
