Take the name of Jesus with you (revised)

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.

Take the name of Jesus ever

As a shield from every snare.

If temptations ’round you gather

Breathe that holy name in prayer.

Oh

the precious name of Jesus

How it thrills our souls with joy;

All the favor of the Father

In this name we may enjoy.

Jesus’ name we’ll keep extolling

Till we see Him

face to face;

We’ll fall at His feet

rejoicing

“King of kings” exalt and praise.
