It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds, and drives away his 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, Husband, Friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 5 Weak is the effort of my heart, and cold my warmest thought; but, when I see thee as thou art, I'll praise thee as I ought. 6 Till then I would thy love proclaim with every fleeting breath; and may the music of thy name refresh my soul in death.
