Jesus Is Your Name

I’ve been searching all my life
For something just beyond my reach
I learned great lessons
And discovered treasures too
But when the quest boils down
The best I’ve found Is You And yes success has passed me by
More often than it’s blessed my days
But I’m a richer man
More than I’ve ever been
‘Cause when I trust in You
I know that I can winAnd I’d do it all again
Relive it full, the joys, the pain
As long as You were somewhere in the shadows
Gently guiding me
‘Cause Jesus is Your nameI’ve made mistakes along the way
In years of straddling the line
I’ve stood for Heaven
And I’ve crawled right into Hell
But You reclaim me from the flames
Time after time‘Cause Jesus is Your name
Messiah, Savior, Father, Lord
And though I don’t deserve Your grace
You placed it on me just the same
‘Cause Jesus is Your nameThrough all of the stormy seas
The rain and the wailing wind
With You on the bridge with me
I’d sail through it all againSo if You ask me now to tell
The past regrets which I lament
Upon consideration, there are quite a few
But if I had the chance
To change them as I wentI’d do it all again
Till Kingdom Come and Heaven’s Reign
I’ve learned enough to know
I haven’t learned enough
So if You’d call
I’d answer and proclaim
I’ll do it all again
‘Cause Jesus is your name
