14059. The Loving Name—Jesus

1 It fell upon a sinner’s ear,
That sweetest name—Jesus!
It banished all His doubts and fears,
That mightiest name—Jesus!

Refrain:
Then sound it out on hill and plain,
That wondrous name—Jesus!
Echo it o’er and o’er again,
That glorious name—Jesus!

2 ’Twas whispered to a wearied heart,
That cheering name—Jesus!
It bade all gloom and care depart,
That blessèd name—Jesus! [Refrain]

3 It brought the wanderer back to God,
That tender name—Jesus!
It guideth to your blest abode,
That precious name—Jesus! [Refrain]

4 ’Tis dearer far than fame or wealth,
That loveliest name—Jesus!
’Twill rescue from eternal death,
That saving name—Jesus! [Refrain]
