How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
Author: J. Newton (1725-1807) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #211a (1987) Topics: Christ the Friend of Sinners 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;
it satisfies the hungry soul,
and gives 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, guardian, 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 you as you are,
I'll praise you as I ought.
6 Till then I would your love proclaim
with every fleeting breath;
and may the music of your name
refresh my soul in death. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER

'Lift up your hearts!' We lift them to the Lord

and give to God our thanks with one accord;
it is our joy and duty, all our days
to lift our hearts in grateful thanks and praise.
2 Above the level of the former years,
the mire of sin, the slough of guilty fears,
the mist of doubt, the blight of love's decay —
O Lord of light, lift all our hearts today!
3 Above the swamps of subterfuge and shame,
the deeds, the thoughts, that honour may not name,
the halting tongue that dares not tell the whole —
O Lord of truth, lift every Christian soul!
4 Above the storms that darken human life —
pride, jealousy and envy, rage and strife;
where cold mistrust holds friend and friend apart —
O Lord of love, lift every Christian heart!
5 Then, with the trumpet call as Christ appears,
'Lift up your hearts!' rings, pealing in our ears:
still shall our hearts respond with full accord —
'We lift them up, we lift them to the Lord!'
