How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,621 hymnals Matching Instances: 185 Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
in a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds,
and drives away our 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 O Jesus, shepherd, guardian, friend,
my Prophet, Priest, and King,
my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
accept the praise I bring.
4 How weak the effort of my heart,
how cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you as you are,
I'll praise you as I ought.
5 Till then I would your love proclaim
with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of your name
refresh my soul in death.

Whate'er your race may be.
All children of the living God
Are surely kin to me.

In Him meet south and north;
All Christly souls are one in Him
Throughout the whole wide earth.

and worship near thy throne.

O Happy Is the Man Who Hears
Author: Michael Bruce, 1746-1767 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 301 hymnals Matching Instances: 7 Lyrics: 1. O happy is the man who hears
Instruction’s warning voice;
And who celestial wisdom makes
His early, only choice.
2. For she has treasures greater far
Than east or west unfold;
And her rewards more precious are
Than all their stores of gold.
3. In her right hand she holds to view
A length of happy days;
Riches with splendid honors joined
Are what her left displays.
4. She guides the young with innocence,
In pleasure’s paths to tread,
A crown of glory she bestows
Upon the hoary head.
5. According as her labors rise,
So her rewards increase;
Her ways are ways of pleasantness,
And all her paths are peace. Used With Tune: ST. PETER (Reinagle) Text Sources: Scottish Paraphrases, 1781
