TAKE THE NAME OF JESUS WITH YOU
1. Take the name of
Jesus with you,
Child of sorrow and
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
now 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
heav'n we'll crown Him,
When our journey is
complete.
