1.Take the name of Jesus with you,Child of sorrow and of woe;It will joy and comfort give you,Take it, then, where'er you go. Refrain:Precious name, O how sweet!Hope of earth and joy of heav'n;Precious name, O how sweet!Hope of earth and joy of heav'n.2.Take the name of Jesus ever,As a shield from ev'ry snare;If temptations 'round you gather,Breathe that holy name in pray'r. [Refrain]3.O the precious name of Jesus!How it thrills our souls with joy,When his loving arms receive us,And his songs our tongues employ! [Refrain]4.At the name of Jesus bowing,Falling prostrate at his feet,King of kings in heav'n we'll crown him,When our journey is complete. [Refrain]
