How sweet the name of Jesus sounds

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #175 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear! It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds, And drives away his fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, And calms the troubled breast; 'Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary, rest. 3 By Him my prayers acceptance gain, Although with sin defiled; Satan accuses me in vain, And I am own'd a child. 4 Weak is the effort of my heart, And cold my warmest thought; But when I see Thee as Thou art, I'll praise Thee as I ought. 5 Till then I would Thy love proclaim, With ev'ry fleeting breath; And may the music of Thy name Refresh my soul in death.

O love divine, how sweet thou art!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #178 (1870) Topics: Christ Praise to; Praise To Christ Lyrics: 1 O love divine, how sweet thou art! When shall I find my willing heart All taken up by thee? I long and thirst, and faint ti prove The greatness of redeeming love, The love of Christ to me. 2 Stronger His love than death or hell; Its riches are unsearchable; The first-born sons of light Desire, in vain, its depths to see; They cannot reach the mystery, The length, and breadth, and height. 3 Oh, that I could forever sit, With Mary, at the Master’s feet! Be this my happy choice; My only care, delight, and bliss, My joy, my heaven on earth be this, To hear the Bridegroom’s voice. 4 Oh, that I could, with favor'd John, Recline my weary head upon The dear Redeemer's breast! From care, and sin, and sorrow free, Give me, O Lord, to find in Thee My everlasting rest. Languages: English
