Hymn 81 TAKE THE NAME OF JESUS Lyrics

1. Take the name of Jesus with.
Child of sorrow and owe;
It will joy and comfort give you,
Take it,then where’er you go.

Chorus
Precious name. O how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of heav’n
Precious name. O how areet!
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 the Holy name in prayer,

3. O the precious name of Jesus!
How it thrills our souls with joy,
When his loving arms receives us,
And His songs our tongues emplay!

4. At the name of Jesus bowing.
Falling prostrate at His feet,
King of kings in heav’n we’ll crown Him,
When our joumey is complete.
