At the Name of Jesus

Author: Caroline Maria Noel Hymnal: Voices United #335 (1996) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Christmas 1 Year A First Line: At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow Lyrics: 1 At the Name of Jesus every knee shall bow, every tongue confess him King of glory now; 'tis our God's great pleasure we should call him Lord, who from the beginning was the mighty Word. 2 Humbled for a season to receive a name from the lips of sinners unto whom he came, faithfully he bore it, spotless to the last, brought it back victorious when from death he passed. 3 Name him, Christians, name him, with love strong as death, but with awe and wonder, and with bated breath; he is God the Saviour, he is Christ the Lord, ever to be worshipped, trusted, and adored. 4 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true; crown him as your Captain in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 5 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, with his angel train; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of Glory now.
