There Is a Name I Love to Hear
"Thou shall call his name JESUS" - Matt 1:21
VERSE 1
There is a name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth,
It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.
VERSE 2
It tell me of a Saviour's love
Who died to set me free,
It tells me of His precious blood,
The sinner's perfect plea.
VERSE 3
It bids my trembling soul rejoice,
And dries each rising tear;
It tells me in a "still small voice,"
To trust and never fear.
VERSE 4
Jesus, the name I love so well,
The name I love to hear,
No saint on earth its worth can tell,
No heart conceive how dear.
VERSE 5
This name shall shed its fragrance still
Along this thorny road,
Shall sweetly smooth the rugged hill
That leads me up to God.
VERSE 6
And there, with all the blood-bought throng,
From sin and sorrow free,
I'll sing the new eternal song
Of Jesus' love to me.
