There is a Name most sweet on earth,
a Name most sweet in heaven,
the Name before his wondrous birth
to Christ the Savior given.
Sweetest note in seraph song,
sweetest name on mortal tongue,
sweetest carol ever sung,
'Jesus, blessèd Jesus.'
When Jesus hung upon the tree
they wrote his Name above him;
that all might see the reason we
for evermore must love him.
Sweetest note in seraph song,
sweetest name on mortal tongue,
sweetest carol ever sung,
'Jesus, blessèd Jesus.'
Now seated on his Father's throne,
all knees must bow before him;
and every tongue confess his Name,
and every heart adore him.
Sweetest note in seraph song,
sweetest name on mortal tongue,
sweetest carol ever sung,
'Jesus, blessèd Jesus.'
