Jesus! How much Thy name unfolds,
To ev¡¦ry open¡¦d ear!
The pardon¡¦d sinner¡¦s mem¡¦ry holds,
None other half so dear.
Thy name encircles every grace
That God as man could show;
There only could He fully trace
A life divine below.
Jesus, it speaks a life of love,
Of sorrows meekly borne;
It tells of sympathy above,
Whatever makes us mourn.
Jesus, the One who knew no sin,
Made sin to make us just;
Thou gav¡¦st Thyself our love to win,
Our full confiding
trust.
The mention of Thy name shall bow
Our hearts to worship
Thee;
The chiefest of ten thousand Thou,
Whose love has set us
free.
