Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Meter: Irregular Appears in 19 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 1:16 Lyrics: 1. Name of all majesty,
fathomless mystery,
King of the ages by angels adored;
Pow'r and authority,
splendor and dignity,
Bow to His mastery–
Jesus is Lord!
2. Child of our destiny,
God from eternity,
Love of the Father on sinners outpoured;
See now what God has done
sending His only Son,
Christ the beloved One–
Jesus is Lord!
3. Savior of Calvary,
costliest victory,
Darkness defeated and Eden restored;
Born as a man to die,
nailed to a cross on high,
Cold in the grave to lie–
Jesus is Lord!
4. Source of all sov'reignty,
light, immortality,
Life everlasting and heaven assured;
so with the ransomed, we
praise Him eternally,
Christ in His majesty–
Jesus is Lord! Used With Tune: MAJESTAS
Name of All Majesty
