How sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds (AYM 17)

AYM 17 How sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

Versi Version 1

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.

2

It makes the wounded spirit whole,

And calms the troubled breast;

'Tis manna to the hungry soul,

And to the weary, rest.

3

Dear name, the rock on which I build,

My shield and hiding place,

My never-failing treasury, filled

With boundless stores of grace!

4

Jesus! My Shepherd, Brother, Friend,

My Prophet, Priest and King!

My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,

Accept the praise I bring.

5

Weak is the effort of my heart,

And cold my warmest thought;

But when I see Thee as Thou art,

I'll praise Thee as I ought.

6

Till then I would Thy love proclaim

With every fleeting breath;

And may the music of Thy name

Refresh my soul in death.
