Lyrics
Lord, you created me - for your glory
Lord, you created me - for your glory
The songs I sing - and the joy that they bring Is to glorify,
glorify your name.
Your son shine through me - for your glory
His love abides in me - for your glory
The peace He bring - and the power that I claim Is to glorify,
glorify your name.
I just came to glorify, glorify your name
I just came to glorify, glorify your name
Because you've got the sweetest name
I know and lift it I'll tell it where ever I go
I came to glorify, glorify your name.
Some call him Jehovah Jira - El Shadi - Lily of the Valley - The Mighty Prince of Peace
All I know - there's no other name under Heaven or Earth
whereby men might be saved except the name the name of Jesus
OOO I just came to glorify, glorify your name
I just came to glorify,
glorify your name Because you've got the sweetest name I know and lift it
I'll tell it where ever I go I came to glorify,
glorify your name.

Meaning & Inspiration
Glorify Your Name frames life, song, joy, peace, and spiritual strength around one purpose: honoring God. The opening recognizes God as Creator and treats musical praise as a response to that calling. It then speaks of the Son shining through the believer and of divine love abiding within, linking public worship with an inward life shaped by Christ. The repeated refrain keeps glory directed toward Gods name rather than toward the singer.
The lyric also gathers several biblical titles and descriptions, including Jehovah Jireh and Prince of Peace. Its strongest scriptural declaration is that salvation is found in no other name than Jesus. That confession closely follows the apostolic witness in Acts and gives the praise a specifically Christ-centered conclusion. The desire to speak that name wherever the singer goes joins worship with testimony. Across its sections, the song presents praise as the natural response to creation, indwelling love, peace, saving power, and the unique name of Jesus.
