At Your Name
Tim Hughes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At your name, the mountains shake and crumble,
At your name, the oceans roll and tumble
At your name, angels will bow, the earth will rejoice, your people cry out

Lord of all the earth we'll shout your name, shout your name
Filling up the skies with endless praise, endless praise
Yahweh Yahweh, we love to shout your name oh Lord
At your name, the morning breaks in glory,
At your name, creation sings your story,
At your name, angels will bow, the earth will rejoice, your people cry out

There is no one like our God,
Jesus we will praise you,




There is no one like our God,
Sing, Sing

Overall Meaning

At Your Name by Tim Hughes is a beautiful song that explores the majesty of God and the impact that His name has on creation. The opening lines of the song capture the raw power of God’s name by describing how mountains shake and crumble and how the oceans roll and tumble at the mere mention of His name. The second verse then paints a picture of the morning breaking in glory and creation singing His story. The song gets even more powerful in the chorus as it talks about how the Lord of all the earth causes people and angels to bow down and how the earth rejoices at His name. The last stanza of the song is a declaration that there is no one like our God and that we will sing His praises forever.


The song’s lyrics perfectly capture the awe and wonder that comes with contemplating God’s greatness. It is easy to sing this song and feel the weight of how small we are compared to the majesty of God. Not only are the lyrics impactful and deep, but the melody is also very uplifting and motivating. It’s a perfect song to sing in corporate worship or as a personal praise song in the privacy of one’s home.
