D D>Dsus2 D D5 A A>Asus4 A D A(2)>A7(2)
1. There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth;
2. It tells me of a Sav-ior's love, Who died to set me free;
3. It tells of One whose lov-ing heart Can feel my deep -est woe,
D D>Dsus2 D D5 A A6 A7(2) A6 A D
1. It sounds like mu -sic in mine ear, The sweet-est name on earth
2. It tells me of His pre-cious blood, The sin -ner's per -fect plea.
3. Who in each sor -row bears a part That none can bear be- low

O how I love Je-sus, Be-cause He first loved me!
