Lyrics
Praise the Name of Jesus
Music & Lyrics by Tonya Leigh Showalter, Michael J. Warner, & Cheryl Thompson
v1: Father, we are gathered together. Let us lift our voice as one. You deserve the praise we are bringing. You are worthy of our song.
v2: Father, you are Lord of creation, beauty flows from who You are. All of nature sings Your glory, from the ocean to the stars.
Br 1: We open up our hearts, offer to You alone, joining creation as we sing.
Ch: Singing praise the name of Jesus. Praise the name of the Lord. Praise the name of Jesus. You are almighty God.
v3: Lord, You're righteous, pure, and holy. You're the true and faithful one. May your kingdom reign in power. Let Your perfect will be done.
Br 2: We serve no other god, we worship You alone, joining as children of our King.
