(or Take the name of Jesus with you) |
|
Take the Name of Jesus with you, |
|
Child of sorrow and of woe, |
|
It will joy and comfort give you; |
|
Take it then, where’er you go. |
|
|
|
Refrain |
|
|
|
Precious Name, O how sweet! |
|
Hope of earth and joy of
Heav’n. |
|
Precious Name, O how sweet! |
|
Hope of earth and joy of
Heav’n. |
|
|
|
Take the Name of Jesus ever, |
|
As a shield from every snare; |
|
If temptations round you gather, |
|
Breathe that holy Name in prayer. |
|
|
|
Refrain |
|
|
|
O the precious Name of Jesus! |
|
How it thrills our souls with joy, |
|
When His loving arms receive us, |
|
And His songs our tongues employ! |
|
|
|
Refrain |
|
|
|
At the Name of Jesus bowing, |
|
Falling prostrate at His feet, |
|
King of kings in Heav’n we’ll crown Him, |
|
When our journey is complete. |
