Tune:[O, how sweet the name of Jesus]
Composer:T. C. O'Kane

18. Oh, How Precious

1 O, how sweet the name of Jesus
To believers day by day,
How it thrills the soul with rapture,
Toiling up the narrow way.

Refrain:
O, how precious, O, how precious
Is the dear Redeemer's name;
O, how precious! O, how precious
Is the dear Redeemer's name.

2 O, how sweet the name of Jesus
In the time of woe or pain;
Peace and comfort always bringing.
Bidding joy return again. [Refrain]

3 O, how sweet the name of Jesus
In temptation's darkest hour;
In his name we find deliv'rance
From the cruel's tempter's power. [Refrain]

4 O, how sweet the name of Jesus
Now and evermore will be,
When the King arrayed in beauty,
With the ransomed we shall see. [Refrain]
