The great High Priest who knows our needs
Acquainted with our feelings of infirmity
Perfect sacrifice for the sins of men
Laying down His life to rise again
Therefore God has exalted Him
And given Him the name above all names
At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow
And every tongue confess that He is Lord
He is Lord He is Lord
