Jesus The Name High Over All

Chris Eaton, Gareth Robinson, John Hartley

Verse 1
Jesus, the name high over all
In hell or earth or sky
Angels and men before it fall
And devils fear and fly
Jesus, the name to sinners dear
The name to sinners giv'n
It scatters all their guilty fear
And turns their hell in heav'n

Chorus
O, that the world might taste and see
The riches of His grace
The arms of love that compass me
Would all the world embrace

Verse 3
Jesus, the prisoner's fetters breaks
And bruises satan's head
Power into strengthless souls it speaks
And life into the dead
Thee I shall constantly proclaim
Though earth and hell oppose
Bold to confess Thy glorious Name
Before a world of foes

Verse 3
His only righteouness I show
His saving truth proclaim
'Tis all my business here below
To cry 'behold the Lamb'
Happy, if with my latest breath
I may but gasp His name
Preach Him to all, and cry in death
'Behold, behold the Lamb!'
