1  There is a name I love to hear,

       I love to sing its worth;

    It sounds like music in mine ear,

       The sweetest name on earth.

 2  It tells me of a Savior's love,

       Who died to set me free;

    It tells me of His precious blood,

       The sinner's perfect plea.

 3  It tells me what my Father hath,

       In store for every day,

    And though I tread a darksome path,

       Yields sunshine all the way.

 4  It tells of One whose loving heart

       Can feel my deepest woe,

    Who in each sorrow bears a part

       That none can bear below.
