Tis the sweetest name that the angels know, ’Tis the sweetest name here on earth below, ’Tis the sweetest name, and I love it so; Tell it out to all the world that name is Jesus.

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name, Jesus, Jesus, here and there it means the same; It will ever keep my soul, While the endless ages roll; Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name.

Verse 2

’Tis the sweetest name that all heaven sings, And the dearest name that to mankind clings; Oh, that sweetest name full salvation brings; Tell it out to all the world that name is Jesus.

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name, Jesus, Jesus, here and there it means the same; It will ever keep my soul, While the endless ages roll; Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name.

Oh, that sweetest name gives from sin release, In the vale of sighs bids my sorrows cease; ’Tis the sweetest name, for it brings us peace; Tell it out to all the world that name is Jesus.

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name, Jesus, Jesus, here and there it means the same; It will ever keep my soul, While the endless ages roll; Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name.

Verse 4

’Tis the sweetest name e’er employed in song, And it thrills my heart as it makes me strong; Oh, that sweetest name overcomes all wrong; Tell it out to all the world that name is Jesus.

Chorus

Jesus, Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name, Jesus, Jesus, here and there it means the same; It will ever keep my soul, While the endless ages roll; Jesus, earth and heaven’s sweetest name.
