Holy Name of Jesus

J. D. Trapp • English

Primary Scripture: Acts 4:12

Verse 1

Let the holy name of Jesus Dwell forever in thy heart; It will cleanse, refresh, and cheer you, Shield from Satan's fatal dart. O the joy, the precious fountain, Which his sacred name supplies; It is balm for wounded spirits, It is life that never dies.

Verse 2

Souls all weary, worn, and troubled, Bowed with sorrow, pain, and grief; Weak and trembling—in this fountain Surely find a sweet relief. With thy woes and earthly labors, Weary with thy load of care; Come, O come unto the Savior, In him endless pleasures are.
