Your name is higher and exalted
Far above everything that’s name
Your name’s the only name Jesus
By which all men can be saved
Your name is a strong tower
I run to You when I’m safe
My greatest on the Lord
Is to speak Your name
Jesus, my Lord Jesus Emmanuel
You are with us
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Christ is the Lord
I come and behold You
You’ve covered me, delivered me
Lord I have set my love on You
I dwell within Your secret place
Under Your shadows mighty God
You’ve covered me
Delivered me
I dwell within Your secret place
