Nuhguhmoowin 14.

"How sweet the name of Jesus sounds."
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, fill'd
With boundless stores of grace.
Jesu, my Shepherd, Husband, Friend,
My Prophet, Priest and King,
My Lord, my life, my way, my end,--
Accept the praise I bring.
Weak is the effort of my heart,
And cold my warmest thought;
But, when I see thee as thou art,
I'll praise thee as I ought.
Till then I would thy love proclaim
With every fleeting breath;
And may the music of thy name
Refresh my soul in death.
C. M.
"How sweet the name of Jesus sounds."
Ka gate me noo tah gwud e ne
Je sus oo de noo z'win.
Me ewh wan je me noo da ad
Owh duh ya bwa yan dung.
Me ewh wan je pe zaun uh yaud
Owh ma goosh kah dan dung;
Owh a ya koo zid e ne ne
Oo dun wa be e goon.
Nin ke che sah ge toon, Je sus,
Ewh ke de noo zoo win,
Me suh ewh nind ah zhe bik oom,
E mah koo kah zoo yaun.
Je sus nin de nuh wa mah gun,
Nin ke che Oo ge mom,
Oo dah pe nuh muh we shin suh
Ne mah moo yuh wa win.
Shah gwe we muh gud ewh nin da,
Tuh ke sin koo kuh ya;
Uh pe dush ween wah buh me naun,
Quuh yuk nin guh nuh gum.
Ke guh ke che min wah je min
Nuh nauzh goo ewh uh pe;
Me nik ka be mah de ze yaun,
Pa shoo we je we shin.
