Take the name of Jesus with you, Child of sorrow and of woe, It will joy and comfort give you; Take it then, wherever you go. Precious name, O how sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heaven. Precious name, O how sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heaven. Take the name of Jesus ever, As a shield from every snare; If temptations round you gather, Breathe that holy name in prayer. At the name of Jesus bowing; Falling prostrate at His feet, King of kings in Heaven we'll crown Him, When our journey is complete.
