The Cyber Hymnal ‎#2851

2851. I Know of a Name

1. I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That angels brought down to earth;
They whispered it low, one night long ago,
To a maiden of lowly birth.

Refrain
That beautiful name, that beautiful name,
From sin has power to free us!
That beautiful name, that wonderful name,
That matchless name is Jesus!

2. I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That unto a Babe was given.
The stars glittered bright throughout that glad night,
And angels praised God in Heav’n. [Refrain]

3. The One of that name, my Savior became,
My Savior of Calvary.
My sins nailed Him there; my burdens He bare.
He suffered all this for me. [Refrain]

4. I love that blest name, that wonderful name,
Made higher than all in Heaven.
’Twas whispered, I know, in my heart long ago
To Jesus my life I’ve giv’n. [Refrain]
