Reverence His Name

I want to look at some lyrics today. This song, entitled “Worship Medley” but referred to by yours truly as “Jesus, We Reverence Your Name,” is from Kurt Carr’s CD some time ago…now, what was the name of that CD???? Hummmm. I’ll think on it and get back to you. Nevertheless, I want you to look with me at the lyrics to this song. If you’ve never heard the song, jump on the internet and try it out – I saw one site giving free downloads but of course, that was a few clicks ago. The tempo is slow and meaningful. Soulful, if you will. They are singing to the Lord.



Worship Medley(recorded by Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers)
You are God
The only sovereign God
The only living God
Everlasting, ever loving, ever giving God
There is a name that I love to proclaim
Master, Savior, Jesus
No name compares to its awesome refrain
Jesus we reverence you name, with our praise
Jesus we reverence your name.
Oh Jesus, oh oh oh Jesus
Your name is awesome and greatly exalted
Jesus, oh oh oh Jesus-us
Jesus we reverence your name with our praise
Jesus, we reverence yourName
Jesus we reverence your name!
Oh how I love Jesus (x3)
Let me tell you why I love Him (x2)
Because He first loved me.


Ah…the song is on the “Awesome Wonder” CD. The song opens with a statement of TRUTH. God IS. Just as He says of Himself, I AM. He is sovereign and living, and everlasting, ever loving, ever giving! Great God! Just look at those attributes! Oh we worship an awesome God!

Then we start talking about that name…Yolanda Adams sang “That Name” and boy can she sing! Or, as we say in these parts, “that gurl can sang!” Yep, that’s some good slang right there. Back on topic, we recognize Jesus as our Master and Savior – we reverence His name with our praise. That makes me happy right now! Praise you Lord Jesus! Bless Your Name!

I like the way that this worship medley ends because it says something very critical – we can worship Him like this because of what He did first – He loved me and He loved you. Amazing!

So, if you get a chance, check out the actual song, I’m sure it will move you!
