Je-sus, Je-sus, Je-sus—Sweetest name I know,
Fills my ev-'ry longing, Keeps me singing as I go,
There's within my heart a melody,
Jesus whispers sweet and low,
"Fear not, I am with thee, peace be still,"
In all of life's ebb and flow."
All my life was wrecked by sin and strife,
Discord filled my heart with pain;
Jesus swept across the broken strings,
Stirred the slumbering chords again.
Though sometimes He leads through waters deep,
Trials fall across the way;
Though sometimes the path seems rough and
and steep,
See His footprints all the way.
Soon He's coming back to welcome me
Far beyond the starry sky;
I shall wing my flight to worlds unknown,
I shall reign with Him on high.
