Names


So Many Names

Wonderful Counselor is your name!
The Glory of God is your Wonderful aim!
All  comfort and counsel come from our Christ’s hand
For you brought God’s glory  down to  man…

Mighty God I call your name
To o’ercome  the world is why you came
Victorious warrior you shall Win
The God-Man has victory over all sin.

Now who could bear so many names?
What other could fulfill their claims?
None other than God’s Holy One
God sends salvation in His Son

The fullness of  beauty  of the One who is blessed
Could never by one name be fully expressed
The power of His Presence shall be our reward
When we call on the name of the Lord.

Everlasting Father you alone
Shall make provision for your own
No other father can compare
We rest in your eternal care!

Prince of Peace come rule in us
Who in your righteous rule now trust
You reign in us and reign alone
You make our hearts your holy throne.

Now who could bear so many names?
What other could fulfill their claims?
None other than God’s Holy One
God sends salvation in His Son

The fullness of  beauty  of the One who is blessed
Could never by one name be fully expressed
The power of His Presence shall be our reward
When we call on the name of the Lord.
