Take the Name of Jesus Songtext
von Heritage Singers

In a day of endless struggle
As we pray for strength to fight
Our lives we will surrender
To walk by faith not sight
We′ll proclaim His name victorious
So all the world will know
'Til we someday meet the Son of man
We must let His truth be known

We′ll praise His name (His name)
No matter what the cost
We'll raise Him high (raise Him high)
So the world won't be lost
And if by chance He calls us home
Before we meet again (before we meet again)
Won′t you take the name of Jesus
To the hearts of this great land?


In the streets are hungry children
Who are starving for some bread
They only want to find a home
A place to lay their heads
Have you heard the still small voice inside
Saying "What have you done with these
As you′ve given to the least of them
You've given unto me"

We′ll praise His name (His name)
No matter what the cost
We'll raise Him high (raise Him high)
So the world won′t be lost
And if by chance He calls us home
Before we meet again (before we meet again)
Won't you take the name of Jesus
To the hearts of this great land?

With courage we′ll fight the fight
To set His people free
We must take His light of love to all
So the world can finally see
Can finally see


We'll praise His name (His name)
No matter what the cost
We'll raise Him high (raise Him high)
So the world won′t be lost
And if by chance He calls us home
Before we meet again (before we meet again)
Won′t you take the name of Jesus
Won't you take the name of Jesus
To the hearts of this great land?

This great land
