HYMN LXXV. The Name above every Name.

8.6.8.6

James Montgomery

The Name above every Name.

Bow every knee at Jesus' name,

And every tongue confess;

Let the Redeem'd with joy proclaim

"The Lord our Righteousness."

To Him through all the rounds of time

Perpetual prayer be made;

O'er sea and land, from clime to clime,

Homage to Him be paid.

From young and old with every breath

Let prayer and praise arise;

Life be the "daily offering" -- Death

"The evening sacrifice."

Let heaven and earth reply "Amen!"

And all their hosts adore,

The Lord of Angels and of men

For ever evermore.
