Oh! hear the voice of Jesus.

Sweetest note in seraph song,
Sweetest name on mortal tongue;
Sweetest carol ever sung,
Jesus, blessèd Jesus.

Oh! hear the voice of Jesus;
Go on your way in peace to Heav’n,
And wear a crown with Jesus. [Refrain]

I now believe in Jesus;
I love the blessèd Savior’s name,
I love the name of Jesus. [Refrain]

Who love the name of Jesus,
May now accept the gracious call
To work and live for Jesus. [Refrain]

Oh, praise the name of Jesus;
Oh, sisters, all your voices raise,
Oh, bless the name of Jesus. [Refrain]
6. His name dispels my guilt and fear,
No other name but Jesus;
Oh! how my soul delights to hear
The charming name of Jesus. [Refrain]

We rise to see our Jesus,
We’ll sing around the throne of love
His name, the name of Jesus. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [The great Physician now is near]
