How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds D G A D How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds G A D In a believer?s ear! G A D G It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, G A D And drives away his fear. It makes the wounded spirit whole, And calms the troubled breast; ?Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary, rest. Dear Name, the Rock on which I build, My Shield and Hiding Place, My never failing treasury, filled With boundless stores of grace! By Thee my prayers acceptance gain, Although with sin defiled; Satan accuses me in vain, And I am owned a child. Jesus! my Shepherd, Husband, Friend, O Prophet, Priest and King, My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, Accept the praise I bring. Weak is the effort of my heart, And cold my warmest thought; But when I see Thee as Thou art, I?ll praise Thee as I ought. Till then I would Thy love proclaim With every fleeting breath, And may the music of Thy Name Refresh my soul in death! http://guitarchordsforhymns.wordpress.com/2008/12/15/how-sweet-the-name-of-jesus-sounds/
