The Name above every Name.
| The Name, the Name o'er every name In earth or heaven above, Let babes' and sucklings' lips proclaim And youth adore and love. | | Jesus, the Son of God most high, Whose image he express'd, The fullness of the Deity, In flesh made manifest:-- | | Jesus, the Son of Man became, Assumed our mortal breath, Endured the cross, despised the shame, And pour'd His soul in death. | | Jesus, omnipotent to save, Then triumph'd gloriously; O Death! where is thy sting? O Grave! Where is thy victory? | | Redemption in His blood begins, In His atonement ends; He saves His people from their sins; Who would not be His friends? | | To God the Father's glory, now, Jesus, Thy name we bless; Let every knee before it bow, And every tongue confess. | |
