Author: G. W. Bethune Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #623 (1920) Lyrics: 1 There is no name so sweet on earth,
No name so dear in heaven,
As that before His wondrous birth
To Christ the Saviour given.
We love to sing unto our King,
And hail Him blessed Jesus!
For there's no word ear ever heard,
So dear, so sweet as Jesus.
2 'Twas Gabriel first that did proclaim,
To His most blessed Mother,
That Name which now and evermore,
We praise above all other.
We love to sing unto our King,
And hail Him blessed Jesus!
For there's no word ear ever heard,
So dear, so sweet as Jesus.
3 And when He hung upon the Cross,
They wrote His Name above Him,
That all might see the reason we
For evermore must love Him.
We love to sing unto our King,
And hail Him blessed Jesus!
For there's no word ear ever heard,
So dear, so sweet as Jesus!
4 So now upon His Father's throne,
Almighty to release us
From sin and pains, He ever reigns
The Prince and Saviour Jesus!
We love to sing unto our King,
And hail Him blessed Jesus!
For there's no word ear ever heard,
So dear, so sweet as Jesus! Topics: Youth and School Life Languages: English Tune Title: THE BLESSED NAME
