How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,664 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Rock Lyrics: 1 How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear! It soothes the sorrows, heals the wounds, and drives away all fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, and calms the troubled breast; 'tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary, rest. 3 Dear Name! the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding-place, my never-failing treasury, filled with boundless stores of grace. 4 Jesus, my Shepherd, Brother, Friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 5 The effort of my heart is weak, and cold my warmest thought; but when I see you whom I seek, I'll praise you as I ought.
