Call Your Name
Gateway Worship Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Jesus, the most beautiful name of all names
Jesus, the only name that brings healing and strength
When I speak Your Name, mountains move, chains are loosed
When I speak Your Name, darkness flees, it has no hold on me
Jesus, the most beautiful name that I know
You're the exalted One
Jesus, You have the power alone
You lift the lonely one, Jesus

Jesus, the most wonderful name of all names
Jesus, the only name that brings freedom and hope
When I speak Your Name, mountains move, chains are loosed
When I speak Your Name, darkness flees, it has no hold on me

Jesus, the most beautiful name that I know
You're the exalted One
Jesus, You have the power alone
You lift the lonely one
You lift the lonely one, Jesus

Be exalted, be exalted, be exalted higher and higher
Be exalted, be exalted, be exalted higher and higher




Be exalted, be exalted, be exalted higher and higher
Be exalted, be exalted, be exalted higher and higher

Lyrics:
My Friend, my King
You see the waves surrounding me
I'll fix my eyes upon You
And though my sorrows roll
Like thunder through my soul
I'll set my heart upon You

Call Your name
I believe that You hear me
You're near me
Sorrows fly, shadows flee
At Your coming You can do anything
When I call Your name

Then come what may
I know Your blood will make a way
I'll throw my arms around You

Call Your name
I believe that You hear me
You're near me
Sorrows fly, shadows flee
At Your coming You can do anything
When I call Your name

When I call
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Call Your name
I believe that You hear me
You're near me
Sorrows fly, shadows flee
At Your coming You can do anything
When I call Your name
