How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
In a believer’s ear!
It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear,
And drives away his fear,
And drives away his fear,
It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear.

But when we see Thee as Thou art,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
But when we see Thee as Thou art,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought.

We'll praise Thee as we ought.

Till then we would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And triumph in that blessed Name
Which quells the pow’r of death,

Which quells the pow’r of death,
And triumph in that blessed Name
Which quells the pow’r of death.
Till then we would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;

And triumph in that blessed Name
Which quells the pow'r of death.

Wow, wow, wow. Every word in this hymn is so precious and filled with meaning.
It's true!
It makes the wounded spirit whole
And calms the troubled breast
Tis manna to the hungry soul
And to the weary rest
