335. Name of Jesus, Softly Stealing

1 Name of Jesus, softly stealing
O'er a world of strife and shame,
Thou canst bring us heavenly healing,
O Thou all-restoring Name.

2 Name of Jesus, Heaven of gladness,
Cause our doubts and fears to cease;
Soothe away the aching sadness;
Name of Jesus, give us peace.

Amen.
