The Name of Jesus

There is a name, a wondrous name
Of infinite and endless fame
Of God beloved, by saints revered
By angels and archangels feared
Ordained by God, 'ere the world began
Revealed by angels unto man
Proclaimed by men, believed, adored
By hearts and prayer and praise outpoured
The theme of prophets, priests and kings
The Word of which sweet psalmists sing
By pilgrims blessed, by suff'ers sung
The last word breathed by martyr's tongue
The name most precious and sublime
Supreme in faith, supreme in time
Destined to live and conquer all
'Til all knees everywhere shall fall
And tongue confess - what God proclaimed
This name to be the name of names
The name which in high heaven will be
The one name of eternity
Then, oh my soul, its praise forth tell
Jesus - the name ineffable!
