How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,618 hymnals First Line: How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear! It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds, and drives away our fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole and calms the troubled breast; 'tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary, rest. 3 O Jesus, shepherd, guardian, friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 4 How weak the effort of my heart, how cold my warmest thought; but when I see you as you are, I'll praise you as I ought. 5 Till then I would your love proclaim with every fleeting breath; and may the music of your name refresh my soul in death.

Anonymous

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Author (stanza 5) of "Amazing Grace! How Sweet the Sound" in Renew! Songs and Hymns for Blended Worship In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
