Oh, great Judge. I thank you that you are not only just, but merciful. I cleave to Christ who is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of your nature who has made purification for all my sins and has sat down at your right hand and even now makes intercession for me. Amen. Lewis Bayly.

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds in a believer's ear. It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, and drives away his fear. It makes the wounded spirit whole and calms the troubled breast. Tis manna to the hungry soul and to the weary rest. Dear name, the rock on which I build my shield and hiding place, my never failing treasury filled with boundless doors of grace. Jesus, my shepherd, husband, friend, my prophet, priest, and king, my Lord, my life, my way, my end, accept the praise I bring.
