              G                                  D                G 
There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth 
 G                                    D                G 
It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest name on earth 
G                    D               G 
O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus 
G                        D                    G 
O, how I love Jesus, because He first loved me! 
G                                    D               G 
It tells me of a Savior's love, who died to set me free 
G                                      D                  G 
It tells me of His precious blood, the sinner's perfect plea 
G                                  D                G 
It tells me what my Father hath in store for ev'ry day 
G                                              D                G 
And, though I tread a dark-some path, yields sunshine all the way 
G                                       D               G 
It tells of One whose loving heart can feel my deepest woe 
G                                     D              G 
Who in each sorrow bears a part that none can bear below
