How Sweet The Name

Verse 1:
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer’s ear!
It soothes his sorrows,
heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear.

Verse 2:
It makes the wounded spirit whole,
And calms the troubled breast;
‘Is manna to the hungry soul,
And to the weary rest.

Verse 3:
Dear name, the rock on which I build,
My shield and hiding place,
My never failing treasury,
filled with boundless stores of grace.

Verse 4:
Jesus! My Shepherd, Guardian, Friend,
My Prophet, Priest, and King!
My Lord, my life, my way, my end!
Accept the praise I bring.

Verse 5:
Weak is the effort of my heart,
And cold my warmest thoughts;
But when I see Thee as Thou art,
I’ll praise Thee as I ought.
