Cyber Hymnal™ page1 All praise to Him who reigns above, In majesty supreme; Who gave His Son for man to die, That He might man redeem. Chorus: Blessed be the name, blessed be the name, Blessed be the name of the Lord, Blessed be the name, blessed be the name, Blessed be the name of the Lord. 2 His name above all names shall stand, Exalted more and more, At God the Father's own right hand, Where angel hosts adore. [Chorus] 3 Redeemer, Savior, Friend of man Once ruined by the fall, Thou hast devised salvation's plan, For Thou hast died for all. [Chorus] 4 His name shall be the Counsellor, The mighty Prince of peace. Of all earth's kingdom's Conqueror, Whose name shall never cease. [Chorus] 5 The ransomed hosts of Thee shall bring Their praise and homage meet; With rapturous awe adore their King, And worship at His feet. [Chorus] 6 Then shall we know as we are known, And in that world above Forever sing around the throne His everlasting love. [Chorus]Tune:
BLESSED NAME
The tune and refrain are often used with "O for a thousand tongues to praise" and "How sweet the name of Jesus sounds", and occasionally with other CM texts, and the refrain is used by itself as a praise chorus
