Music by Unknown, words by W. Yerbury
Your name we love, Lord Jesus,
And lowly bow before You;
And while we live, to You we give
All blessing, worship, glory.
We sing aloud Your praises,
Our hearts and voices blending,
It's You alone we worthy own,
Your beauty's all-transcending.
Your name we love, Lord Jesus;
It tells God's love unbounded
To ruined man ere time began,
Or heaven and earth were founded.
Yours is a love eternal,
That found in us its pleasure,
That brought You low to bear our woe,
And make us Your own treasure.
Your name we love, Lord Jesus;
It tells Your birth so lowly,
Your patience, grace, Your gentleness,
Your lonely path, so holy.
You were the Man of Sorrows;
Our grief, too, You did bear it;
Our bitter cup You drank it up;
The thorny crown did wear it.
Your name we love, Lord Jesus;
God's Lamb-- You were ordained
To bear our sins (Yourself all clean),
And have our guilt sustained;
We see You crowned in glory,
Above the heavens now seated,
The victory won, Your work well done,
Our righteousness completed.
