At the Name of Jesus

1. At the Name of Jesus
   Every knee shall bow,
   Every tongue confess him
   King of Glory now;
   ‘Tis the Father’s pleasure
   We should call him Lord,
   Who from the beginning
   Was the mighty Word.
   
2. Humbled for a season,
   To receive a name
   From the lips of sinners,
   Unto whom he came,
   Faithfully he bore it
   Spotless to the last;
   Brought it back victorious,
   When from death he passed.
   
3. Name him, brothers, name him
   With love strong as death,
   But with awe and wonder
   And with bated breath!
   He is God the Saviour,
   He is Christ the Lord,
   Ever to be worshipped,
   Trusted, and adored.
   
4. In your hearts enthrone him;
   There let him subdue
   All that is not holy,
   All that is not true:
   Crown him as your Captain
   In temptation’s hour;
   Let his will enfold you
   In its light and power.
   
5. Brothers, this Lord Jesus
   Shall return again,
   With his Father’s glory,
   With his angel train;
   For all wreaths of empire
   Meet upon his brow,
   And our hearts confess him
   King of Glory
