一 耶穌此名何等芬芳,在蒙恩人耳中!
撫他憂悶,醫他悲傷,並且驅他驚恐。
二 此名醫治憂傷的靈,平定起伏心情;
是飢餓者的生命餅,疲倦者的安寧。
三 我要建造容身之處,此名乃是根基;
乃是天上豐富之庫,包藏無量福氣。
四 耶穌救主,罪人朋友,先知、祭司、君王;
道路、真理、生命、元首,接納我的歌唱。
五 何等軟弱,我的努力,最熱思想冷淡;
將來親眼見祢自己,方照本分頌讚。
六 一息尚存,在祢來前,我願仍傳祢愛;
我靠祢名,只一瞬間,死亡能力失敗。
1. How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds
In a believer's ear!
It soothes his sorrow, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fear.
2. It makes the wounded spirit whole,
And calms the troubled breast;
'Tis manna to the hungry soul,
And to the weary rest.
3. Dear Name! the Rock on which we build;
Our shield and hiding place;
Our never-failing treasury, filled
With boundless stores of grace.
4. Jesus, our Savior, Shepherd, Friend,
Our Prophet, Priest, and King;
Our Lord, our Life, our Way, our End,
Accept the praise we bring.
5. Weak is the effort of our heart,
And cold our warmest thought;
But when we see Thee as Thou art,
We'll praise Thee as we ought.
6. Till then we would Thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And triumph in that blessed Name
Which quells the pow'r of death.
