Take the Name of Jesus with you

1	Take the Name of Jesus with you, 
	Child of sorrow and of woe, 
	It will joy and comfort give you; 
	Take it then, where’er you go. 

		Precious Name…, Oh, how sweet…! 
		Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n!
		Precious Name…, Oh, how sweet…! 
		Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n. 

2	Take the Name of Jesus ever, 
	As a shield from every snare; 
	If temptations round you gather, 
	Breathe that holy Name in prayer. 

3	Oh,  the precious Name of Jesus! 
	How it thrills our souls with joy, 
	When His loving arms receive us, 
	And His songs our tongues employ! 

4	At the Name of Jesus bowing, 
	Falling prostrate at His feet, 
	King of kings in heav’n we’ll crown Him, 
	When our journey is complete.
