Lyrics
(Whoa)
VERSE 1
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer’s ear
INTERLUDE
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fears
CHORUS
How sweet the name of Jesus
Sounds in a believer’s ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fears
VERSE 2
It makes the wounded spirit whole
And calms the troubled breast
’tis manna to the hungry soul
And to the weary, rest
CHORUS
How sweet the name of Jesus
Sounds in a believer’s ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fears
VERSE 3
Jesus, my Savior, my Shepherd, Friend
My Prophet, Priest, and King,
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
Accept the praise I bring
Jesus, my Savior, my Shepherd, my Friend
My Prophet, Priest, and King,
My Lord, my Life, my Way, my End,
Accept the praise I bring
CHORUS
How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer’s ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fears
Oh, how sweet the name of Jesus sounds
In a believer’s ear
It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds,
And drives away his fears
Jesus, the name of Jesus,
So sweet in love,
Believers in Him
No other name like Jesus can soothe your sorrow, heal your wounds,
And wipe away your pain

Jesus You're So Cool and 1234 Jesus open the praise, and Rose Of Sharon and Jesus Lover Of My Soul slow the room for worship. I'm Responding and Take My Life are the response at the end.
Communion
Psalm 32 comes first with I Acknowledged My Sin, then Good Friday and By His Wounds before the table itself. Communion Song carries the words "take, eat, this is my body," and To God Be the Glory closes the service.
