A LITANY OF THE NAME OF
JESUS
Thrice-Holy Name! that sweeter sounds
Than streams which down the valley run,
And tells of more than human love,
And more than human power, in one:
First from the gracious Herald heard,
Heard since through all the choirs on high!—
O Child of Mary, Son of God,
Eternal, hear Thy children's cry!
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
Than streams which down the valley run,
And tells of more than human love,
And more than human power, in one:
First from the gracious Herald heard,
Heard since through all the choirs on high!—
O Child of Mary, Son of God,
Eternal, hear Thy children's cry!
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
Within our dim-eyed souls call up
The vision of Thine earthly years;
The Mount of the transfigured Form;
The Garden of the bitter tears;
The Cross uprear'd in darkening skies:
The thorn-wreathed Head; the bleeding Side;
And whisper in the heart, “For you,
For you I left the heavens, and died.”
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
The vision of Thine earthly years;
The Mount of the transfigured Form;
The Garden of the bitter tears;
The Cross uprear'd in darkening skies:
The thorn-wreathed Head; the bleeding Side;
And whisper in the heart, “For you,
For you I left the heavens, and died.”
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
70
Ah! with Faith's inward-piercing eye
The riven rock-hewn bed we see,
Whence Thou in triumph hast gone forth
By death from death to make us free!
And when on Earth's last awful day
The Judgment-Seat of God shall shine,
Lift Thou our trembling eyes to read
In thy dear Face the Mercy-sign.
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
The riven rock-hewn bed we see,
Whence Thou in triumph hast gone forth
By death from death to make us free!
And when on Earth's last awful day
The Judgment-Seat of God shall shine,
Lift Thou our trembling eyes to read
In thy dear Face the Mercy-sign.
While at the blesséd Name we bow,
Lord Jesus, be among us now!
