188. Jesus' Name, Jesus' Name

1 Jesus’ Name, Jesus’ Name,
Source of life and happiness!
In this Name true consolation
Mourning sinners may possess;
Here is found complete salvation.
Blessed Jesus, we Thy Name will praise
All our days, all our day.

2 God with us, God with us,
God appears in human frame;
In His Name rejoice with gladness,
Since to save lost man He came;
None need sink in hopeless sadness,
For Immanuel is now with us,
God with us, God with us.
