He heard his children weeping
He heard their mournful song
Their voices raised to Heaven
Crying out, "Oh Lord, how long?"
And He said, "I'll send a Savior
To set my people free
To break the chains of bondage
And bring them back to Me"
In the name of love
In the name of the Father
In the name of peace
He comes from Heaven above
In the name of joy
In the name of forgiveness
He comes today, He comes to stay
In the name of love
We hear the glad rejoicing
We hear the nations sing
We hear the mystic wonder
Of praise to Christ the King
Then let us join the chorus
And let our voices roll
Till all the earth with music
And joy shall overflow
In the name of love
In the name of the Father
In the name of peace
He comes from Heaven above
In the name of joy
In the name of forgiveness
He comes today, He comes to stay
In the name of love
In the name of joy
In the name of forgiveness
He comes to today, He comes to stay
In the name of love
He comes in the name of love
