11783. Just The Whispered Name Of Jesus

1 Just the whispered name of Jesus
Thrills my soul with deepest love;
Turns my thoughts from earthly pleasures
To the holy joys above.

Refrain:
Just the whispered name
Brings the peace of Heaven near;
Blessèd, blessèd name to hear!
The name of Jesus.
Precious name, O how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n;
Precious name, O how sweet!
Hope of earth and joy of Heav’n.

2 Just the whispered name of Jesus
Drives away desire to sin;
Gives me courage to bear bravely
All life’s bitter discipline. [Refrain]

3 Just the whispered name of Jesus
Fills my heart with joy untold,
That some day His gracious presence
I shall certainly behold. [Refrain]

4 Just the whispered name of Jesus
Makes me long to tell to all
How He saves, from sin and sorrow,
Those who listen to His call. [Refrain]
