Author: Fredrick Whitfield Hymnal: The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship #8 (1938) First Line: There is a name I love to hear Refrain First Line: Precious name, precious name Lyrics: 1 There is a name I love to hear,
I love to speak its worth;
It sounds like music in mine ear--
The sweetest name on earth.
Chorus:
Precious name, precious name,
I love to speak its worth;
Precious name, precious name,
The sweetest name on earth.
2 It tells me of a Saviour's love,
Who died to set me free;
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner's perfect plea. [Chorus]
3 Jesus! the name I love as well,
The name I love to hear!
No saints on earth its worth can tell,
No heart conceive how dear. [Chorus]
4 This name shall shed its fragrance still
Along this thorny road;
Shall sweetly smooth the rugged hill
That leads me up to God. [Chorus]
