About this Hymn
This began as a meditation on the names of Jesus (as did a number of hymns that have come before). Written with our friend Ian Hannah, this hymn was developed as an expression of comfort and encouragement to people initially in the Christmas season, beginning with "Jesus, your name, Prince of Peace, quiets my soul, treasures the least" and finishing with, "Jesus, the name all nations will praise."
Lyrics
Verse 1
Jesus, your name, Prince of Peace, quiets my soul, treasures the least. In perfect rest you will keep all whose hope is in you. Jesus, your name can silence the storms, the strivings that trouble our world. Jesus, your name reveals you as Lord; oh, powerful name!
Verse 2
Jesus, your name, Counselor; Wonderful Way, Life's Comforter. Spirit of Truth defending me, though in me was the blame. Jesus, your name has stood in my place and freed me from hopeless shame; Jesus, your name now fathers me; with joy I bear his name.
Verse 3
Jesus, your name, Mighty God, All-Pow'rful One, ruling in love. There is a King upon the throne earth cannot overthrow. Jesus, your name, great banner of hope, steadies the knees of the weak. Jesus, the name all nations will praise; oh, glorious name!
