| 1. | Lord, Thy Name is calld Jesus, |
| | Wonderful is this dear Name; |
| | Thou wast brought forth of the virgin, |
| | And the Son of man became. |
| | Thou art our Jehovah-Savior, |
| | Saving us from all our sins; |
| | When as Savior we receive Thee, |
| | Life divine in us begins. |
| 2. | Thou as "Christ" art also titled, |
| | Title of Thy ministry; |
| | Thou art truly God's anointed, |
| | Even from eternity. |
| | Thou, O Lord, art God's Messiah; |
| | God appointed Thee in love, |
| | That Thou might fulfill His purpose |
| | And to all His glory prove. |
| 3. | Thou art also, called "Emmanuel"; |
| | "God with us" Thou cam'st to be; |
| | God in grace is wholly mingled |
| | With our own humanity. |
| | God in flesh is manifested, |
| | Full of grace and truth therein; |
| | We have seen in Thee God's glory, |
| | And in faith partake of Him. |
| 4. | How we treasure all Thy names, Lord, |
| | How much they to us unfold; |
| | All their worth and all their sweetness |
| | We in love will ever hold. |
| | Precious Savior, we adore Thee, |
| | Worship unto Thee we bring; |
| | Our Emmanuel we exalt Thee, |
| | And Thy praise will ever sing. |
