How Sweet The Name

Tom: C#m

          C#m   B       E         A
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds
 C#m    B            A
In a believer’s ear!
          C#m   B       E         A
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds
         A                B             C#m
And drives away our fear
          C#m   B       E         A
It makes the wounded spirit whole
           C#m    B            A
And heals our brokenness;
      C#m      B          E           A
It’s manna to the hungry soul
        A             B            C#m
And to the weary, rest

[Chorus]
          A            B
Just one name I adore
          E                   C#m
Just one name awakes my soul
          A            B
Just one name above them all
   E
Jesus
          A            B
Just one name I adore
          E                   C#m
Just one name awakes my soul
          A            B
Just one name above them all
  E
Jesus

[Verse 2]
          C#m   B       E         A
Jesus! my Shepherd, Saviour, Friend
 C#m    B            A
O Prophet, Priest and King
          C#m   B       E         A
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End
         A                B             C#m
Accept the praise I bring
          C#m   B       E         A
Dear Name, the Rock I build upon
           C#m    B            A
My Shield and Hiding Place
      C#m      B          E           A
My never failing treasury
        A             B            C#m
With boundless stores of grace!
(JUST ONE NAME)


[Verse 3]
          C#m   B       E         A
So weak the effort of my heart
 C#m    B            A
And cold my warmest thought;
          C#m   B       E         A
But when I see You as You are
         A                B             C#m
I’ll sing forevermore
          C#m   B       E         A
Till then, I will, Your love proclaim
           C#m    B            A
With every fleeting breath
      C#m      B          E           A
And may the music of Your Name
        A             B            C#m
Refresh my soul in death!
