Text:The Name Which I Whisper
Author:Trygve A. Bjerkrheim
Translator (from Norwegian):Vilhelm Gravdal
Tune:[The Name which I whisper as morning time breaks]
Composer:Leonard G. Gudmundsen

4490. The Name Which I Whisper

1. The Name which I whisper as morning time breaks,
And is on my tongue as my body awakes,
Is Jesus, is Jesus, is Jesus, Jesus.

2. The Name which I whisper as hours will fly,
And lives in my mind until evening will die,
Is Jesus, is Jesus, is Jesus, Jesus.

3. The Name which I mention when night’s coming near,
The Name of the Man that my heart loves so dear,
Is Jesus, is Jesus, is Jesus, Jesus.

4. That Name is the only last word I will say,
The first I will whisper in Heaven one day,
Is Jesus, is Jesus, is Jesus, Jesus.
