(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)
1
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.
CHORUS
Precious name (precious name),
O how sweet! (how sweet)!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n;
Precious name (precious name),
O how sweet (how sweet)!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n
2
Take the name of Jesus ever,
As a shield from ev’ry snare;
If temptations round you gather,
Breathe that holy name in prayer.
CHORUS
3
O the preicous name of Jesus!
How it thrills our souls with joy,
WHen His loving arms receive us
And His songs our tongues employ!
CHORUS
4
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.
CHORUS
