Thy Name Alone Can Save

Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12336 Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 D First Line: There is a name divinely sweet Refrain First Line: Dear Savior, Thine the precious name Lyrics: 1 There is a name divinely sweet, That melts the heart to love, And wakes the highest note of praise From angel choirs above; It guides the mourning wanderer home; It calms the troubled wave; In all the realms beneath the skies, No other name can save. Refrain: Dear Savior, Thine the precious name That melts the heart to love, And wakes the highest note of praise From angel choirs above. 2 That name devotion’s flame inspires In every grateful breast; And thro’ its all prevailing power We hope, and look for rest; It brings us near the throne of grace, By faith and earnest prayer; It brings to every waiting soul A Father’s blessing there. [Refrain] 3 The saints redeemed, with one accord, The name in glory sing; And o’er the radiant fields of light, Their loud hosannas ring; Eternal Father, source of light! Inspire our grateful lays; And teach our hearts in nobler strains That blessèd name to praise. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: KARLSRUHE

Above the city’s noise and din, A song rose on the air, A song of triumph and of joy, From loved ones gathered there. Refrain: Then speed thee on to every land, Proclaim the Gospel call, Till souls who sit in darkness now, Shall crown Him Lord of all. 2 All hail the power of Jesus’ name, And clear as bugle call, The words came floating on the air, O crown Him Lord of all. They caught the spirit of that hymn Danger and death looked small To those brave ones who gave their lives To crown Him Lord of all. [Refrain] 3 A battle hymn that song sped on, The world for Christ the call; For every island of the sea Shall crown Him Lord of all. On Afric’s far off sunny slopes, By China’s kingly wall, They lay their lives down at His feet, And crown Him Lord of all. [Refrain] 4 The southern cross begins to bend, The morning dawns at last; See idol, shrine and mosque and tower, At Jesus’ feet are cast. Triumphant Zion, lift thy head, Let every burden fall; Come, cast your trophies at His feet, And crown Him Lord of all. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: PORT ANGELES

Jerusalem

No earthly eye I know hath seen The glories that are thine; Nor ear hath heard such strains as rise From ’mid the host divine. [Refrain] 3 But more than all thy streets can boast, My eager eyes would see Jesus, the precious Lamb of God, Who died to ransom me! "Jerusalem! Jerusalem! Name ever dear to me, O may at last my name be found" With Christ, my Lord, in Thee. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: MOUNT FUJI

Refrain: The world above is not like this, So dark, so sad, and drear; Oh no, for there the years of bliss Roll on without a tear! 2 The world above is not like this, No parting tears are shed, Nor sweet affection’s lingering kiss, Bestowed upon the dead; There severed hearts unite again, In love around the throne, And far beyond this world of pain Take up their crown and home! [Refrain] 3 Oh for a harp in that bright world, Far from the tears of this; Here death’s black banners are unfurled To shade each hour of bliss; But there each spirit-harp will thrill With music’s endless tones, And Jesus’ smile forever fill With light our angel homes.
