O! Matchless Name, all other names excelling,
‘Twas given from heaven at Thy lowly birth;
The greatness of the Father’s love revealing
The fullness of Thine own intrinsic worth.
Jesus, Lord Jesus! Ever the same,
Crowned now with glory, we triumph in Thy Name.
O! Matchless Name, all other names excelling,
‘Twas written by Thy foes upon the cross;
To all the world, the love of God forthtelling,
Proved by Thy sorrow, suffering, shame and loss.
Jesus, Lord Jesus! Ever the same,
Crowned now with glory, we triumph in Thy Name.
O! Matchless Name, by God the Father given
To Thee, now seated on th’ eternal throne;
The Name through which lost sinners are forgiven,
Who rest upon the work that Thou hast done.
Jesus, Lord Jesus! Ever the same,
Crowned now with glory, we triumph in Thy Name.
O! Matchless Name, all other names excelling,
Name at which every knee so soon shall bow,
Lord Jesus Christ! our hearts with rapture swelling,
We own Thee, love Thee, Praise Thee even now.
Jesus, Lord Jesus! Ever the same,
Crowned now with glory, we triumph in Thy Name.
