[ story behind the song ]

We become like the things we worship. In Jesus Christ is seen the perfection of every virtue, and it is in meditating on him that we begin to know what God is like.

This song is intended to help us dwell on some of his perfections so that, in worshipping him, we may be changed into his likeness.

[ lyrics ]

Say the name of love
Jesus, Jesus
Say the name of peace
Jesus, Jesus
Say the name of mercy
Jesus, Jesus
Say the name of goodness
Jesus, Jesus

May that name be lifted high
May that name be glorified
As we gather here
All that’s beautiful and true
All that’s good is found in you
The name above all names

Say the name of wisdom
Jesus, Jesus
Name of revelation
Jesus, Jesus
Say the name of justice
Jesus, Jesus
Pardon and forgiveness
Jesus, Jesus

Jesus, worship Jesus

Say the name of healing
Jesus, Jesus
Miracles and wonders
Jesus, Jesus
Say the name of power
Jesus, Jesus
Here among us now
Jesus, Jesus

Jesus, worship Jesus
