How Sweet The Name Of Jesus Sounds
In A Believer’s Ear!
It Soothes Our Sorrows, Heals Our Wounds,
And Drives Away Our Fear.
It Makes The Wounded Spirit Whole
And Calms The Troubled Breast;
‘Tis Manna To The Hungry Soul,
And To The Weary, Rest.
O Jesus, Shepherd, Guardian, Friend,
My Prophet, Priest, And King,
My Lord, My Life, My Way, My End,
Accept The Praise I Bring.
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.
Till Then I Would Your Love Proclaim
With Every Fleeting Breath;
And May The Music Of Your Name
Refresh My Soul In Death.
