 1 

Jesus, Name of matchless splendor!

Name all other names above!

Glorious Son of God incarnate,

King of kings, and Lord of love!

 
 2 

Name that to our hearts is nearest,

Here the stricken soul doth hide;

Name that to our hearts is dearest,

As in Jesus we confide.

 
 3 

"Call Him Jesus!" He shall save us

From the tyranny of sin;

From its condemnation save us,

From iniquity within.

 
 4 

Thanks we give, and adoration,

Every day and every hour,

For an uttermost salvation,

Freedom from sin's guilt and power.

 
 5 

Jesus! Sweetest note of any

In the lowly pilgrim's song;

Jesus! The triumphant music

Of the bright angelic throng.

 
 6 

Earth to Him her face upraises,

Knows Him as the great I AM!

Heaven resounds with Jesus' praises,

Glory to the bleeding Lamb!
