We, poor exiles, Join not yet your melody. 3 Alleluia! strains of gladness Suit not souls with anguish torn: Alleluia! sounds of sadness Best become our state forlorn: Our offences We with bitter tears must mourn. 4 But our earnest supplication Holy God, we raise to Thee: Visit us with Thy salvation, Make us all Thy joys to see!

To the Name of our salvation

Author: Anon. Appears in 118 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation Laud and honor let us pay, Which for many a generation Hid in God’s foreknowledge lay, But with holy exultation We may sing aloud today. 2 Jesus is the name we treasure, Name beyond what words can tell; Name of gladness, name of pleasure, Ear and heart delighting well; Name of sweetness passing measure, Saving us from sin and hell. 3 ’Tis the name for adoration, Name for songs of victory, Name for holy meditation In this vale of misery, Name for joyful veneration By the citizens on high. 4 ’Tis the name that whoso preacheth Speaks like music to the ear; Who in prayer this name beseecheth Sweetest comfort findeth near; Who its perfect wisdom reacheth Heavenly joy possesseth here. 5 Jesus is the name exalted Over every other name, In this name, whene'er assaulted, We can put our foes to shame; Strength to them who else had halted, Eyes to blind, and feet to lame. 6 Therefore we in love adoring, This most blesséd name revere, Holy Jesus, Thee imploring So to write it in us here, That hereafter heavenward soaring We may sing with angels there.
