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 world began,
Revealed by angels unto man,
Proclaimed by men, believed, adored
By heart in prayer and praise outpoured.
The theme of prophet, priest, and king,
The word of which sweet psalmists sing,
By pilgrims blessed, by suff'rers sung,
The last word breathed by martyr's tongue,
The name most precious and sublime,
Supreme in space, supreme in time,
Destined to live and conquer all
Till all knees everywhere shall fall
And tongues confess what God proclaims-
This name to be the Name of names,
The name which in high heaven will be
The One Name of eternity;
Then, O my soul, its praise forthtell,
Jesus - the Name ineffable!
