Lyrics
Your Name is above all names
Your Name is above all names
We cry, "Holy, Holy is the Lamb"
Your name is above all names
Teach our hearts to sing Your praise
Father God, the ancient of Days
Your only Son you sent to die
Your name be glorified
And our hearts forever sing

Meaning & Inspiration
Your Name Is Above All Names is a compact song of adoration centered on the unique glory of Christ. Its opening repetition gives the name of Jesus supreme honor, then answers that confession with the worship cry that the Lamb is holy. The language brings exaltation and sacrifice together: the one raised above every name is also the Son sent to die. Praise is directed to the Father as the Ancient of Days, while the Son remains central to the song’s confession of redemption.
The request for hearts to learn praise shows worship as a response that must be formed and sustained. Singing is not presented as a passing moment but as an enduring occupation, expressed in the closing image of hearts singing forever. The lyric therefore moves from declaration to prayer and finally to lasting devotion. Its few lines draw on familiar biblical titles and worship scenes to honor the Father, confess the holiness of the Lamb, and seek a life ordered toward divine glory.
