Jesus, the name high over all (revised)

10/21/2025
Jesus, the name high over all,
In hell, or earth, or sky:
Angels and men before it fall,
And devils fear and fly.
Jesus, the name to sinners dear,
The name to sinners giv’n.
It scatters all their guilty fear;
It brings them peace of heav’n.
Jesus the prisoner’s fetters breaks
And bruises Satan’s head;
Pow’r into strengthless souls He speaks,
And life into the dead.
Oh, that the world might taste and see
The riches of His grace!
The arms of love that compass me,
Would all mankind embrace.
The name of Jesus, ever sure,
Sufficient, life to bear,
So dear, so precious, shall endure,
My testimony e’er.
