42. I Know a Name

1 I know a name that can drive away all sorrow,
I know a name that is sweeter than them all.
I know a name from which comfort I may borrow
When others fail and my tears of anguish fall.

Refrain:
I know a Name, a wonderful Name,
That wonderful Name is Jesus.

2 I know a name that can still the raging tempest,
I know a name that can calm the troubled sea;
I know a name with a tender touch of healing
For ev’ry heart that by sin may troubled be. [Refrain]

3 I know a name that dispels the pow’rs of evil,
I know a name that can break the tempter's snare.
I know a name that unlocks the gates of heaven
When thro’ its merits I go to God in prayer. [Refrain]

4 I know a name, wondrous name above all others,
O sacred name by angelic hosts adored;
I know a name that is altogether lovely,
O precious name of my living Christ and Lord. [Refrain]
