Poems - Glorious, Mighty Name of Jesus

Jesus

“The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
the righteous man runs into it and is safe.” Proverbs 18:10

Verse 1
Glorious, mighty Name of Jesus,
  Into Thy dear Name I flee;
“Set aloft,” I praise and worship,
  For Thy Name is victory!

Verse 2
Blessed Jesus! Mighty Savior!
  In Thy Name is all I need;
Just to breathe the Name of Jesus,
  Is to drink of Life indeed.

Verse 3
Glorious, mighty Name of Jesus,
  Heav’n and earth its pow’r proclaim;
But forgiven sinners only,
  Know the balm of Jesus’ Name.

Verse 4
Jesus! Jesus! Name most precious,
  Balm in pain or mighty sword;
In Thy Name, we live and conquer,
  Blessed, glorious, coming Lord.
