Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Light in the Valley #220 (1898) First Line: Forever here my rest shall be Refrain First Line: Blessed be the name Lyrics: 1 Forever here my rest shall be,
Close to thy bleeding side;
This all my hope and all my plea
For me the Saviour died.
Chorus:
Blessed be the name,
Blessed be the name,
Blessed be the name of the Lord;
Blessed be the name,
Blessed be the name,
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
2 My dying Saviour and my God,
Fountain for guilt and sin,
Sprinkle me ever with thy blood,
And cleanse and keep me clean. [Chorus]
3 Wash me, and make me thus thine own;
Wash me, and mine thou art;
Wash me, but not my feet alone,
My hands, my head, my heart. [Chorus]
4 Th' atonement of thy blood apply,
Till faith to sight improve;
Till hope in full fruition die,
And all my soul be love. [Chorus] Topics: Consecration; Heaven; The Saviour; Work Languages: English
