Assembly Hymn Writers: There is a Name So Sweet

The 19th century saw the raising up of a large number of believers who have given us hymns of matchless worth, expressing the glories of Christ and the truth of the Word of God. We would like to encourage believers to submit hymns that they have written. It is understood that if they are used by individuals or assemblies, no changes will be made to them.


There is a Name so Sweet

Matthew Swan, Sydney, NS

There is a Name so sweet, I fall down at His feet,
Now let me lift Him up for you to see,
His Name the drunkards sing, His praise the angels sing,
Now let me tell you what He’s done for me.

Chorus
He is my friend, He is my guide,
I can depend on One who died,
To save my soul, to set me free,
Jesus, Savior, the Name for me.

The Name that calms the sea, was lifted high for me,
They shamed the Name that’s highest of the high,
The Name that should be first, by human lips was cursed,
I love Him friend, now let me tell you why.

Chorus
He is my friend, He is my guide,
I can depend on One Who died,
To save my soul, to set me free,
Jesus, Savior, the Name for me.
