Jesus, Sweet Name

 

 

My breast is filled with its sweetness,

What room is there for bitterness?

With Jesus, Name so sweet, so dear,

Who can with His sweet Name compare?

 

There is no voice, no human tongue,

No myriad crowd, no holy throng,

That can Jesus’ sweet Name speak,

They all fall short, we are too weak.

 

The Name of Jesus still can heal,

For nought His power can conceal,

His Name to all who seek and call,

Will find it sweet, best overall.

 

Come one, come all the weak, the strong,

All who to Jesus Christ belong,

Backslider, sinner He saves you,

In Name so sweet, saves fully too.

 

Precious Name! Most beautiful still,

I’ll trust His Name forever, till,

He calls me home His face to see,

Sweeter I know His Name will be.

Amen!
