523 ~ Take the Name of Jesus With You

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.


Refrain

Precious Name, O how sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n. Precious Name, O how sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n.

2

Take the Name of Jesus ever, As a shield from every snare; If temptations round you gather, Breathe that holy Name in prayer.

3

O the precious Name of Jesus! How it thrills our souls with joy, When His loving arms receive us, And His songs our tongues employ!

4

At the Name of Jesus bowing, Falling prostrate at His feet, King of kings in heaven we’ll crown Him, When our journey is complete.
