Текст песни How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds - Kaydee Numbere , Nathaniel Bassey

How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
In a believer′s ear!
It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear

It makes the wounded spirit whole,
And calms the troubled breast;
'Tis manna to the hungry soul,
And to the weary rest

Dear Name! the Rock on which I build;
My shield and hiding-place;
My never-failing treasury, filled
With boundless stores of grace

Jesus, My Shepherd, Guardian, Friend,
My Prophet, Priest, and King;
My Lord, My Life, My Way, My End,
Accept the praise we bring.

Weak is the effort of our heart,
And cold our warmest thought;
But when we see Thee as Thou art,
We′ll praise Thee as we ought,

Till then we would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And triumph in that blessed Name
Which quells the pow'r of death
