Intro: D5 B5 A5

G5                                         D5
It stands to reason that a name is just a word.
         G5                 B5
It can be easily forgotten just as soon as it is heard.
    E5                             D5      
But one name was spoken before the world's first day
            G5                     G5                                    
And it will be here when everything that is has passed away.

Chorus 


D5
Delivered from the lips of God
D5
To Mary's ears on angel wings 
B5      A5
Jesus, Jesus.
D5
The word that came to life for us. 
D5
The song that all creation sings.
B5      A5
Jesus, Jesus.
            G5                         A5        B5
The proudest nations of the earth have come and gone
    E5 A5               C5 G5 D5
But Jesus, the name lives on.


        G5                       D5
When I'm awakened by a terrifying dream
G5                         B5
And desperation reaches up and clutches me
      E5                     D5      
When I am so afraid that I don't know what to pray
      G5                        G5
I simply speak it and feel it and it chases fear away.

Chorus 


C5                        G5
Eternal hope and promise, the ever-breaking dawn
E5                      B5
When time itself is over, the name lives on.
