Lyrics
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
To break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
All sufficient sacrifice
So freely given
Such a price
Bought our redemption
Heaven's gates swing wide
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain

Meaning & Inspiration
Break Every Chain centers its confession on the authority of the name of Jesus. Repeated declarations about power and freedom give the song a focused worship theme, while the image of chains presents sin, bondage, fear, and oppression as realities overcome through Christ. The brief reference to a sufficient sacrifice and redemption anchors that freedom in the saving work of Jesus rather than in human effort.
The lyric moves from personal deliverance toward a gathered response as an army rises to proclaim the same hope. Its repetition functions as a communal declaration: Jesus is named, redemption is remembered, and every form of captivity is placed beneath his authority. Acts 4:12 closely supports the emphasis on salvation in the name of Jesus, while Ephesians 1:7 reflects the language of sacrifice and redemption. The result is a direct song of worship built around freedom, victory, and confidence in Christ.
