Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!

| 1. | Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! |
| | Sweetest Name on earth, |
| | How can I, a sinner, |
| | Come to know its worth? |
| 2. | Oh! the sinful sorrow, |
| | Oh! the strangest shame, |
| | That I saw no beauty |
| | In that sacred Name. |
| 3. | Never felt the sweetness! |
| | Never knew the grace, |
| | Never saw the love-pain |
| | In that wounded face! |
| 4. | Never found the mystery |
| | In that simple word |
| | Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, |
| | Savior, Lover, Lord. |
| 5. | Now 'tis past and over. |
| | Gone my guilt and shame; |
| | Jesus, Jesus did it, |
| | Glory to His Name! |
| 6. | Wonderful compassion, |
| | Reaching even me; |
| | Bows my humbled spirit |
| | In captivity. |
| 7. | Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! |
| | Loved me in my shame. |
| | Oh! the joy and rapture |
| | Of that sacred Name. |
