Lyrics

How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear! It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds, And drives away his fear It makes the wounded spirit whole, And calms the troubled breast; 'Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary rest Dear Name! the Rock on which I build; My shield and hiding-place; My never-failing treasury, filled With boundless stores of grace Jesus, My Shepherd, Guardian, Friend, My Prophet, Priest, and King; My Lord, My Life, My Way, My End, Accept the praise we bring. Weak is the effort of our heart, And cold our warmest thought; But when we see Thee as Thou art, We'll praise Thee as we ought, Till then we would Thy love proclaim With every fleeting breath; And triumph in that blessed Name Which quells the pow'r of death
