Jesus, The Mention Of Your Name
Donnie McClurkin · Donnie McClurkin [1996]
Jesus, Jesus, at the mention of Your name
Every knee will bow and tongue proclaim
Jesus, Jesus, You are savior, You are Lord, You are God
Repeat Chorus:
There is one name I love to hear
I love to sing its worth
It sounds like music in my ear
The sweetest name on earth
Repeat Chorus:
So now we worship and adore You
We lift our hands and praise
The Immortal, Invisible
The Ancient Of Days
Creation bows before You
As Your children give You praise
You're the only One
That's worthy of this song
Repeat Chorus:
