Lyrics

It stands to reason that a name is just a word It can be easily forgotten just as soon as it is heard But one name was spoken before the world's first day And it will be here when everything that is has passed away Chorus Delivered from the lips of God To Mary's ears on angel wings Jesus, Jesus The word that came to life for us The song that all creation sings Jesus, Jesus The proudest nations of the earth have come and gone But Jesus, the name lives on When I'm awakened by a terrifying dream And desperation reaches up and clutches me When I am so afraid that I don't know what to pray I simply speak it and feel it and it chases fear away Chorus Eternal hope and promise, the ever-breaking dawn When time itself is over, the name lives on Chorus
