Meaning & Inspiration
Power In Your Name is a Hillsong Kids song about the power found in the name of Jesus. The verse says that God has fed His people, that they stand firm and believe that Heaven will be opened, and that as they pray and seek, they know He hears and intercedes and is forever praying for them. The chorus lists the power to heal, save, forgive and love in Jesus' name, and says that because God is love there is power in the name of Jesus.
The closing section turns into a promise to take up the cross and follow Him wherever He leads. The themes follow Hebrews 7:25 on Jesus interceding, John 14:13-14 on asking in His name, Acts 4:12, Philippians 2:9-11 and Luke 9:23 on taking up the cross. The clear lists and repeated lines make it easy for children to learn and sing, and the tone is bright and confident.
