Author: James G. Deck Hymnal: Laudes Domini #404 (1888) First Line: Jesus, thy name I love Lyrics: 1 Jesus, thy name I love,
All other names above,
Jesus, my Lord!
Oh, thou art all to me!
Nothing to please I see,
Nothing apart from thee,
Jesus, my Lord!
2 Thou, blessed Son of God,
Hast bought me with thy blood,
Jesus, my Lord!
Oh, how great is thy love,
All other loves above,
Love that I daily prove,
Jesus, my Lord!
3 When unto thee I flee,
Thou wilt my refuge be,
Jesus, my Lord!
What need I now to fear?
What earthly grief or care,
Since thou art ever near,
Jesus, my Lord!
4 Soon thou wilt come again!
I shall be happy then,
Jesus, my Lord!
Then thine own face I'll see,
Then I shall like thee be,
Then evermore with thee,
Jesus, my Lord! Topics: Christ Character of; Christ Jesus; Christians Love for Christ; Communion of Saints With Christ Scripture: Matthew 1:21 Languages: English Tune Title: LYTE
