Jesus, how fragrant is thy name!
‘Tis ointment poured forth;
No tongue thy glories can describe,
No heart conceive thy worth.
What yonder sun is to the world,
Thou art, and more to me;
How cheering is thy sacred light,
How bright, and yet how free!
Thy righteousness is my defence,
It clears from every charge;
A word of thine dispels my fears,
And sets my soul at large.
My daily wants are all supplied
From thine abundant store;
I love thee, but my dearest Lord,
I fain would love thee more.
