"Take the Name of Jesus With You" was written by Mrs. Baxter on her sick bed just four years before her death in 1874 at the age of 65. Throughout her lifetime she was known as an avid student of the Bible who loved to discuss the significance of scriptural names with her friends. She would inform them that Samuel means "asked of God," Hannah -- "grace," Sarah -"princess," and Naomi -- "pleasantness." But the name that meant everything to Lydia Baxter was the name of "Jesus."
