The Name of Jesus is so sweet,
I love its music to repeat;
It makes my joys full and complete,
The precious Name of Jesus!
Refrain
"Jesus," O how sweet the Name!
"Jesus," every day the same;
"Jesus," let all saints proclaim
Its worthy praise forever!
I love the Name of Him whose heart
Knows all my griefs and bears a part;
Who bids all anxious fears depart,
I love the Name of Jesus!
Refrain
That Name I fondly love to hear,
It never fails my heart to cheer;
Its music dries the falling tear,
Exalt the Name of Jesus!
Refrain
No word of man can ever tell
How sweet the Name I love so well;
O let its praises ever swell,
O praise the Name of Jesus!
