[00:05.512]How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
[00:10.573]In a believer's ear
[00:15.357]It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds
[00:20.876]And drives away our fear
[00:28.103]It makes the wounded spirit whole
[00:33.152]And calms the troubled breast
[00:38.462]'Tis manna to the hungry soul
[00:43.550]And to the weary, rest
[00:50.716]Dear Name! the Rock on which I build
[00:56.037]My Shield and Hiding Place
[01:00.848]My never-failing Treas’ry filled
[01:06.703]With boundless stores of grace
[01:13.868]Jesus! my Shepherd, Brother, Friend
[01:19.184]My Prophet, Priest, and King
[01:24.234]My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End
[01:29.805]Accept the praise I bring
[01:37.005]Weak is the effort of my heart
[01:42.340]And cold my warmest thought
[01:47.407]But when I see Thee as Thou art
[01:52.723]I’ll praise Thee as I ought
[01:59.897]Till then I would Thy love proclaim
[02:05.486]With every fleeting breath
[02:10.543]And may the music of Thy name
[02:16.383]Refresh my soul in death

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds
And drives away our fear
It makes the wounded spirit whole
And calms the troubled breast
'Tis manna to the hungry soul
And to the weary, rest
Dear Name! the Rock on which I build
My Shield and Hiding Place
My never-failing Treas’ry filled
With boundless stores of grace
Jesus! my Shepherd, Brother, Friend
My Prophet, Priest, and King
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End
Accept the praise I bring
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
Till then I would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath
And may the music of Thy name
Refresh my soul in death
