Take the name of Jesus ever,
As a shield from every snare.
If temptations ’round you gather,
Breathe that holy name in prayer.

At the name of Jesus bowing,
Falling prostrate at His feet,
Claim His vict’ry over evil
And the enemy defeat.
Falling prostrate at His feet,
Claim His vict’ry over evil
And the enemy defeat.

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.

The words of the song are not only very meaningful but also much well with the tune. It has ministered to my soul.
