AT The Name Of Jesus

1 At the name of Jesus 4 Bore it up triumphant
With its human light
ev'ry knee shall bow, through all ranks of creatures
to the central height
ev'ry tongue confess him to the throne of Godhead
to the Father’s breast
King of glory now; filled with the glory
of that perfect rest
'tis the Father's pleasure
5 In your hearts enthrone him
we should call him Lord, there let him subdue
all that is not holy
who from the beginning all that is not true
Crown him as your king
was the mighty Word. in temptation’s hour
Let his will enfold you
2 At his voice creation in its light and power
sprang at once to sight,
all the angel faces, 6 Christians this lord Jesus
all the hosts of light, shall return again
cherubim in heaven, in his Father’s glory
stars upon their way, with his angel’s band
all the heav'nly orders At his voice the new creation
in their great array. Will blossom in all glory
His praises we’ll sing anew
3 Humbled for a season in glorious pure harmony
to receive a name
from the lips of sinners 7 Christians this lord Jesus
unto whom he came, shall return again
faithfully he bore it in his Father’s glory
spotless to the last, with his angel band
brought it back victorious Over will be the night
when from death he passed now endless light of life
We’ll dance and sing
With divine delight
