JESUS, Name of matchless splendour!
Name all other names above!
Glorious Son of God incarnate,
King of Kings, and Lord of love!
2
Name that to our hearts is nearest,
Here the stricken soul doth hide;
Name that to our hearts is dearest,
As in Jesus we confide.
3
“Call Him Jesus!” He shall save us
From the tyranny of sin;
From its condemnation save us,
From iniquity within.
4
Thanks we give, and adoration,
Every day and every hour,
For an uttermost salvation,
Freedom from its guilt and power.
5
Jesus! sweetest note of any
In the lowly pilgrim’s song;
Jesus! the triumphant music
Of the bright angelic throng.
6
Earth to Him her face upraises,
Knows Him as the great I am!
Heaven resounds with Jesus’ praises,
Glory to the bleeding Lamb!
