| Tune: | [The name of Jesus is so sweet] |
| Composer: | Edmund S. Lorenz |
1 The name of Jesus is so sweet,
I know its music to repeat;
It makes my joys full and complete,
The precious name of Jesus!
Refrain:
"Jesus"— O how sweet the name,
"Jesus"— ev'ry 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! [Refrain]
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! [Refrain]
4 No word of man can ever tell
How sweet the name I love so well;
O let Its praises ever swell,
O praise the name of Jesus. [Refrain]
