There is a name to Jesus given,
|
|
| 1. | There is a name to Jesus given, |
| | His matchless love its accents tell; |
| | For it declares: He is my Brother, |
| | And this His name-Emmanuel! |
| | The Lord, by angels worshiped yonder, |
| | Has stooped to earth with men to dwell, |
| | Incarnate God, and man forever- |
| | Our own beloved Emmanuel. |
| 2. | There is a name that's still more precious, |
| | That stirs our hearts with fondest love: |
| | It is the charming name of Jesus, |
| | The name all other names above. |
| | It tells me that He is my Savior |
| | >From sin and sickness and the grave. |
| | I love the precious name of Jesus, |
| | For I am one He came to save! |
| 3. | Though dear to us the name of Jesus, |
| | The name of Christ is higher still! |
| | It tells of Him who dwells within us, |
| | Our old heart to renew and fill. |
| | It tells me of the Spirit's fullness, |
| | It brings the pow'r of Pentecost. |
| | O blessed Christ, anoint me also, |
| | And fill me with the Holy Ghost! |
