what a blessing to hear my brothers singing about our Savior...many many miles away...but our hearts are all intertwined together with Christ's love and Grace......
Jesus Is the Sweetest Name I Know, In 1924, Peter W. Philpott was serving as pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago, Illinois. One night he was awakened by a call to come help a young woman staying at a hotel in the city. He arrived to find her in the company of two family members. The woman-Lela Long-was gravely ill, and in great distress. Philpott prayed for her physical needs, and had the privilege of leading her to faith in Christ. Late the next day, he phoned the hotel to see how she was doing, only to learn the three had checked out. He wondered what had become of them, but had no way of getting in touch. Five or six years later, Philpott was pastor of a large church in Los Angeles, California. At the close of one service, who should come up to him but the three people he had met in Chicago. They had seen his picture in a church advertisement and came to meet him. An emergency had required their rapid departure from Chicago, and they apologized for not getting in touch. Lela Long thanked him for pointing her to the Savior, saying her life was wonderfully changed, and that she was now using her musical talent to serve the Lord. She handed Philpott a copy of Jesus Is the Sweetest Name I Know, written shortly after her conversion: I have written this especially for you, in remembrance of the day that you introduced me to the most wonderful Person I have ever known. There have been names that I have loved to hear, But never has there been a name so dear To this heart of mine, as the name divine, The precious, precious name of Jesus. Refrain Jesus is the sweetest name I know, And He’s just the same as His lovely name, And that’s the reason why I love Him so; Oh, Jesus is the sweetest name I know. There is no name in earth or Heav’n above, That we should give such honor and such love As the blessèd name, let us all acclaim, That wondrous, glorious name of Jesus. Refrain And some day I shall see Him face to face To thank and praise Him for His wondrous grace, Which He gave to me, when He made me free, The blessèd Son of God called Jesus.

Jesus Is the Sweetest Name I Know,
In 1924, Peter W. Philpott was serving as
pastor of the Moody Church in Chicago, Illinois. One night he was awakened by a call to come help a young woman
staying at a hotel in the city. He arrived to find her in the company of two
family members. The woman-Lela Long-was gravely ill, and in great distress.
Philpott prayed for her physical needs, and had the privilege of leading her to
faith in Christ. Late the next day, he phoned the hotel to see how she was
doing, only to learn the three had checked out. He wondered what had become of
them, but had no way of getting in touch.
Five or six years later, Philpott was
pastor of a large church in Los Angeles, California. At the close of one service, who should come up to him but the
three people he had met in Chicago. They had seen his picture in a church advertisement and came to meet
him. An emergency had required their rapid departure from Chicago, and they
apologized for not getting in touch. Lela Long thanked him for pointing her to
the Savior, saying her life was wonderfully changed, and that she was now using
her musical talent to serve the Lord. She handed Philpott a copy of Jesus Is the Sweetest
Name I Know, written shortly after her conversion: I have
written this especially for you, in remembrance of the day that you introduced
me to the most wonderful Person I have ever known.
There have been names that I have loved to
hear,
But never has there been a name so dear
To this heart of mine, as the name divine,
The precious, precious name of Jesus.
Refrain
Jesus is the sweetest name I know,
And He’s just the same as His lovely name,
And that’s the reason why I love Him so;
Oh, Jesus is the sweetest name I know.
There is no name in earth or Heav’n above,
That we should give such honor and such love
As the blessèd name, let us all acclaim,
That wondrous, glorious name of Jesus.
Refrain
And some day I shall see Him face to face
To thank and praise Him for His wondrous grace,
Which He gave to me, when He made me free,
The blessèd Son of God called Jesus.
Refrain
Words & Music: Lela B. Long, 1924
