Tersteegen; Mrs. Bevan, Tr.
NAME of Jesus! Highest Name!
Name that earth and heaven adore!
From the heart of God it came,
Leads me to God’s heart once more.
2
Name of Jesus! living tide!
Days of drought for me are past;
How much more than satisfied
Are the thirsty lips at last!
3
Name of Jesus! dearest Name!
Bread of heaven, and balm of love;
Oil of gladness, surest claim
To the treasures stored above.
4
Jesus gives forgiveness free,
Jesus cleanses all my stains;
Jesus give His life to me,
Jesus always He remains.
5
Only Jesus! fairest Name!
Life and rest, and peace, and bliss;
Jesus, evermore the same,
He is mine, and I am His.
