1 Jesus, Name of wondrous love,
Name all other names above!
Unto which must every knee
Bow in deep humility.
2 Jesus, Name of priceless worth
To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave,
'Jesus shall his people save.'
3 Jesus, Name of mercy mild,
Given to the holy Child
When the cup of human woe
First he tasted here below. A-men.
4 Jesus, only Name that's given
Under all the mighty heaven,
Whereby man, to sin enslaved,
Burst his fetters and is saved.
5 Jesus! Name of wondrous love!
Human Name of God above;
Pleading only this we flee,
Helpless, 0 our God, to thee.
Amen.
