Text:There is a name I love to hear
Author (Verses):Frederick Whitfield (1829-1904)

69. There is a name I love to hear

1 There is a name I love to hear,
I love to sing its worth;
It sounds like music in mine ear,
The sweetest name on earth.

Refrain:
O how I love the Saviour’s name!
The sweetest name on earth.

2 It tells me of a Saviour’s love,
Who gave his life for me,
That I, and all who come to him,
From sin may be set free.

3 Jesus, the name I love so well,
The name I love to hear;
No saint on earth its worth can tell,
No heart conceive how dear.

4 In Heaven with all the blood-bought throng,
From sin and sorrow free,
I’ll sing the new eternal song
Of Jesus’ love to me.
