<p>How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds<br>
|
|
In a believer’s ear!<br>
|
|
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,<br>
|
|
And drives away his fear.</p>
|
|
<p>It makes the wounded spirit whole,<br>
|
|
And calms the troubled breast;<br>
|
|
’Tis manna to the hungry soul,<br>
|
|
And to the weary, rest.</p>
|
|
<p>Dear Name, the Rock on which I build,<br>
|
|
My Shield and Hiding Place,<br>
|
|
My never failing treasury, filled<br>
|
|
With boundless stores of grace!</p>
|
|
<p>By Thee my prayers acceptance gain,<br>
|
|
Although with sin defiled;<br>
|
|
Satan accuses me in vain,<br>
|
|
And I am owned a child.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus! my Shepherd, Husband, Friend,<br>
|
|
O Prophet, Priest and King,<br>
|
|
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,<br>
|
|
Accept the praise I bring.</p>
|
|
<p>Weak is the effort of my heart,<br>
|
|
And cold my warmest thought;<br>
|
|
But when I see Thee as Thou art,<br>
|
|
I’ll praise Thee as I ought.</p>
|
|
<p>Till then I would Thy love proclaim<br>
|
|
With every fleeting breath,<br>
|
|
And may the music of Thy Name<br>
|
|
Refresh my soul in death!</p>
