About this Hymn
This was written especially for the 2013 Gospel Coalition conference and its missions theme. It celebrates the multidimensional calling of living the Great Commission daily. As the apostle Peter declares, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
Lyrics
Verse 1
Lift high the name of Jesus, of Jesus, our King. Make known the power of his grace, the beauty of his peace. Remember how his mercy reached, and we cried out to him! He lifted us to solid ground, to freedom from our sin.

Chorus
O sing, my soul, and tell all he's done till the earth and heavens are filled with his glory!

Verse 2
Lift high the name of Jesus, of Jesus, our Lord. His pow'r in us is greater than, is greater than this world. To share the reason for our hope, to serve with love and grace, that all who see him shine through us might bring the Father praise.

Verse 3
Lift high the name of Jesus, of Jesus, our Light. No other name on earth can save, can raise a soul to life. He opens up our eyes to see the harvest he has grown; we labor in his fields of grace as he leads sinners home.
