How Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear!
It soothes our sorrows, heals our wounds, and drives away our fear.

It makes the wounded spirit whole and calms the troubled breast;
’Tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary, rest.

O Jesus, shepherd, guardian, friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King,
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring.

How weak the effort of my heart, how cold my warmest thought;
But when I see you as you are, I'll praise you as I ought.

Till then I would your love proclaim with every fleeting breath;
And may the music of your name refresh my soul in death.

The Joys of Rambling

“Or they just prowled and explored through woods that always seemed to be expecting something wonderful to happen. At least, that was the way Valancy felt about them. Down the next hollow—over the next hill—you would find it. ‘We don’t know where we’re going, but isn’t it fun to go?’ Barney used to say.”
