How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,704 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Rock of Ages First Line: How sweet the name of Jesus sounds Lyrics: 1 How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear! It soothes my sorrows, heals my wounds, and drives away my 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 Dear name! the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding place, my never-failing treasury, filled with boundless stores of grace; 4 Jesus my Shepherd, Guardian, Friend, my Prophet, Priest and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 5 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.

And can an all-creating arm grow weary or decay? 3 Supreme in wisdom as in pow'r, the Rock of Ages stands, though him thou canst not see, nor trace the working of his hands. 4 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports faiting heart, and courage in the evil hour his heavn'ly aids impart. 5 Mere human power shall fast decay, and youthful vigor cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 6 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine, with growing ardor onward move, with growing brightness shine.

What though winds be howling round me, Threatening me with desolation? Christ the Rock is my salvation! Calm amid the wildest shock, On the everlasting Rock.
