The Beauty of His Name – TSMSS

with Amy @ Sign, Miracles, and Wonders

In 1980, my first son was born. That same year, the song I am sharing today was written and recorded.

Being the only child at the time, my sweet baby enjoyed the luxury of being rocked to sleep...and many times with the accompaniment of a song...

Precious lullabies and cherished children’s choruses were included in this mother’s personal play-list, but there were also beloved hymns and uplifting worship songs...

When my baby boy grew into a toddler, afternoon naps still merited mama’s lap, and a soothing song.

Imagine my surprise one day, while I hugged, rocked, and sang, my little one joined in on the chorus of this ballad...

Whew...if that won’t do a mama in, I don’t know what will!

I hope the words of this song bless you...as I reminisce of days gone by...

The Beauty of His Name

words and music by: Lanny Wolfe

Some may wonder where the beauty lies

In the Name I hold so dear.

Well, it’s not just in the way it sounds

As it falls on my ears.

And it’s not just in the way it looks

When it’s written beautifully;

But the beauty of that lovely Name

Is in the power it gives to me.

Chorus:

It’s so beautiful,

The Name of Jesus;

It’s so beautiful,

That precious Name.

If you ask in Jesus’ name,

Anything is yours just to claim.

And I love that precious Name.

At the sound of His name

Every demon has to flee.

For to that Name all power is given

To set the hopeless captive free.

Every sin, disease and sickness

Must bow down to that Name.

And forever more surrender,

For all of time I shall proclaim...

Repeat chorus

And I love,

How I love,

I really love that precious Name.
