Hymn 21

Take the name of Jesus with you

1

Take the name of Jesus with you

Child of sorrow and of woe

It will joy and comfort give you

Take it then where'er you go

CHORUS

Precious name, oh how sweet

Hope of earth and joy of heav'n

Precious name, oh how sweet

Hope of the earth and joy of heav'n

2

Take the name of Jesus ever

As a shield from every snare

If temptation round you gather

Breathe that holy name in prayer

3

Oh! The precious name of Jesus

How it thrills our souls with joy

When his loving arms receives us

And His songs our tongues employ

4

At the name of Jesus bowing

Falling prostrate at his feet

King of kings in heaven we'll crown Him

When our journey is complete.
