LyicsThere's no name among men, no angels so bright,
As is the name Jesus, the Father's delight;
The joy of his children; they speak of this name,
And sweetly its praises in songs they proclaim.
In all Christian churches this name is ador'd,
As their shield and glory, with cheerful accord;
And there 'tis declar'd, the help of distress'd,
The hope of the hopeless, and ease of oppress'd.
The church of the first-born, with angels of light,
Shall sound forth its praises with endless delight;
But fully unfolded it can be by none,
Save Jesus among them, the Father's own Son.
