- Jesus! The name high over all
- .i Charles Wesley
-
- .1
- Jesus! The name high over all,
- In hell, or earth, or sky;
- Angels and men before it fall,
- And devils fear and fly,
- And devils fear and fly.
-
- .2
- Jesus! The name to sinners dear,
- The name to sinners given;
- It scatters all their guilty fear,
- It turns their hell to heaven,
- It turns their hell to heaven.
-
- .3
- Jesus!
- The prisoners' fetters breaks,
- And bruises Satan's head;
- Power into strengthless souls
- He speaks,
- And life into the dead,
- And life into the dead.
-
- .4
- Oh that the world
- might taste and see
- The riches of his grace!
- The arms of love
- that compass me
- Would all mankind embrace,
- Would all mankind embrace.
-
- .5
- His only righteousness I show,
- His saving grace proclaim;
- 'Tis all my business here below
- To cry: 'Behold the lamb!'
- To cry: 'Behold the lamb!'
-
- .6
- Happy if with my latest breath
- I might but gasp His name;
- Preach him to all,
- and cry in death:
- 'Behold, behold the lamb!'
- 'Behold, behold the lamb!'
