How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, And drives away his fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, And calms the troubled breast; 'Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary rest. A-men. 3 Dear Name! the rock on which I build, My shield and hiding-place; My never-failing treasury filled With boundless stores of grace. 4 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. 5 Till then I would thy love proclaim With every fleeting breath; And may the music of thy Name Refresh my soul in death. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER

The watery deep we pass, With Jesus in our view; And through the howling wilderness Our way pursue. A-men. 3 The goodly land we see With peace and plenty blest; A land of sacred liberty And endless rest; There milk and honey flow, And oil and wine abound, And trees of life for ever grow, With mercy crowned. 4 There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness, Triumphant o'er the world and sin, The Prince of Peace; On Zion's sacred height His kingdom He maintains, And glorious with his saints in light For ever reigns. 5 Before the great Three-One They all exulting stand, And tell the wonders he hath done Through all their land; The listening spheres attend And swell the growing frame, And sing, in songs which never end, The wondrous Name. 6 The God who reigns on high The great archangels sing, And, 'Holy, holy, holy,' cry, 'Almighty King, Who was, and is, the same, And evermore shall be: Eternal Father, great I AM, We worship thee.' 7 Before the Saviour's face The ransomed nations bow, O'erwhelmed at his almighty grace, Forever new; He shows his prints of love: They kindle to a flame, And sound through all the worlds above, 'Worthy the Lamb.' 8 The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high; 'Hail, Father, Son and Holy Ghost!' They ever cry; Hail, Abraham's God, and mine! I join the heavenly lays. All might and majesty are thine, And endless praise! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI (YIGDAL)
