1 Oh, soft­ly whis­per Je­sus’ name!
For me to this dark earth He came;
His er­rand one of love di­vine,
To save this sin­ful soul of mine.

Refrain:
He gave His life, His life for me,
On Cal­va­ry! On Cal­va­ry!
His er­rand one of love di­vine,
To save this sin­ful soul of mine.

2 Oh, loud­ly ec­ho Je­sus’ name!
Above all those of earth­ly fame;
He dwells on high, with pow­er to save
The black­est soul from death’s dark grave. [Refrain]

3 Oh, shout the name, in ju­bi­lant strain,
Then ring it o’er and o’er again,
Till all man­kind shall bow the knee
And say, "My king! I’ll live for Thee." [Refrain]
