260. 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.

Refrain:
Precious Name, O how sweet,
Hope of earth and joy of heav'n!
Precious Name, O how sweet,
Hope of earth and joy of heav'n!

2 Take the Name of Jesus ever,
As a shield from ev'ry snare;
If temptations round you gather,
Breathe that holy Name in prayer. [Refrain]

3 O the precious Name of Jesus!
How it thrills our souls with joy,
When His loving arms receive us,
And His songs our tongues employ. [Refrain]

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. [Refrain]

Amen.
