The name of Jesus is so sweet,
|
|
| 1. | The name of Jesus is so sweet, |
| | I love its music to repeat; |
| | It makes my joys full and complete, |
| | The precious name of Jesus. |
| | Jesus! oh, how sweet the name, |
| | Jesus! every day the same; |
| | Jesus! let all saints proclaim |
| | Its worthy praise forever. |
| 2. | I love the name of Him whose heart |
| | Knows all my griefs and bears a part; |
| | Who bids all anxious fears depart, |
| | I love the name of Jesus. |
| 3. | That name I fondly love to hear, |
| | It never fails my heart to cheer, |
| | Its music dries the falling tear; |
| | Exalt the name of Jesus. |
| 4. | No word of man can ever tell |
| | How sweet the name I love so well, |
| | Oh, let its praises ever swell, |
| | Oh, praise the name of Jesus. |
