Hymn 118
Take the name of Jesus with you
- 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.
Precious name.... oh, how sweet
Hope of earth and joy of heav'n.
Precious name.... oh, how sweet!..
Hope of earth and joy of heav'n.
- Take the name of Jesus ever,
As a shield from ev'ry snare;
If temptations round you gather,
Breathe that holy name in prayer.
- Oh, the precious name of Jesus!
How it thrills our souls with joy.
When His loving arms receive us.
And His songs our tongues employ!
- At the name of Jesus bowing.
Falling prostrate at His feet;
King of kings in heav'n we'll crown Him
When our journey is complete.
Christly Living
