Thy Name Is Love

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Malachi 4:2

Verse 1

The Sun of Righteousness on me Hath risen with healing in his wings: Withered my nature's strength, from thee My soul its life and succor brings; My help is all laid up above; Thy nature and thy name is Love.

Verse 2

Contented now, upon my thigh I halt till life's short journey end; All helplessness, all weakness, I On thee alone for strength depend: Nor have I power from thee to move: Thy nature and thy name is Love.

Verse 3

Lame as I am, I take the prey; Hell, earth, and sin with ease o'ercome; I leap for joy, pursue my way, And as a bounding hart, fly home To all eternity, to prove Thy nature and thy name is Love.
