How Sweet The Name Of Jesus O Praise The Name

by The Maranatha Singers

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear It soothes his sorrows heals his wounds And drives away his fear It makes the wounded spirit whole And calms the troubled breast 'Tis manna to the hungry soul And to the weary rest O praise the name of Jesus The name high over all The highest heaven cannot contain Its greatness and its power Dear Name the rock on which I build My shield and hiding place My never failing treasury 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
