O Let the Heart Beat High with Bliss

O let the heart beat high with bliss

Yea

let it tr­iumph at the sound

Of Je­su’s name

so sweet it is

For ev­ery joy there­in is found.

The name that com­fort­eth in woe

The name of Je­sus heal­ing sin

The name that curbs the pow­ers be­low

And drives away the death with­in:

The name that sound­eth ev­er sweet

In speech or verse or ho­ly song

And bids us run with will­ing feet

Consoled

and com­fort­ed

and strong.

Then let the name of Je­sus ring

With lof­ty praise in ev­ery place;

Let heart and voice to­ge­ther sing—

That name shall ev­ery ill ef­face.

Ah! Je­su

health of sin­ful men

Give ear un­to our lov­ing pray­er;

Guide Thou our wan­der­ing feet again

And hold our do­ings in Thy care.

Lord

may Thy name sup­ply our needs

And keep us from all dan­ger free

And make us per­fect in good deeds

That we may lose our sins by Thee.

To Thee

O Christ

all glo­ry be

Who shin­est with this ho­ly name;

We wor­ship Thy div­in­ity

Jesu

Thou Lord of gen­tle fame.

O Je­su

of a vir­gin born

Immortal hon­or be to Thee;

Praise to the Fa­ther in­fi­nite

And Ho­ly Ghost eter­nal­ly.
