Sabbath services made even more special knowing we have a Name, above all others, that we can take with us wherever we go. Thank You Jesus!!!

Thank God for the inspiration given to the composer. It is a song that touch the heart. How I pray that this new generation will learn to sing these heart touching song in their congregation. Thank you.
Kissimmee, Florida, United States
This hymn is sung in our divine worship services on Sundays. It is a very anointed song. Hymns such as this is a lost art; and is not favored in these new age ministries. The young people cannot relate. This is why I make it my duty as a Child of the Most High King and as a Worship leader to preserve these priceless hymns by introducing them at worship services. May the Lord be glorified, His children be edified, and the devil horrified.
