Jesus Christ is His Name
Covenant-keeping, gracious God
Sent Christ to earth; let’s bring Him laud.
He came to live a perfect life,
To break the bonds of sin and strife.
Jesus Christ is His name.
The angels sang when He came.
“Glory to God Who lives on high,
Peace on earth” was their cry.
He lived a perfect righteous life
Though tempted just like you and I.
And then on Calvary’s cross He died.
“It is finished” was His cry.
He’d paid the price for rebel hearts.
We all have missed God’s perfect mark.
But so unfailing is His love
That by His grace, He shed His blood.
Up from the grave He did arise,
And now He calls for us to die,
To die to self and live for Christ,
Be forgiven and filled with life.
What shall we do with this great news?
If we have the Spirit and the truth?
Tell the world the Savior’s call
Come to Jesus one and all.
And live each day to bring Him laud,
This Prophet, Priest, and King, our God.
Jesus Christ is His name.
Forever we’ll sing because He came.
Merry Christmas 2023
Love, the McLennan
