That Beautiful Name (Weekly Hymn Project - Christmas Hymns)

Описание: Christmas hymn #19 (and final for December) is "That Beautiful Name". I was kind of out of the Christmas section of the hymnal, at least by the headings, but I think this is a wonderful hymn to finish this December Christmas hymns selection on. Has the birth of Christ to start and leads to His sacrifice for you and me. Such a beautiful name. I hope you will consider the words and consider who Christ is. Get a Bible and read the gospels for yourself. May you be lead to that beautiful, wonderful, and matchless name which is Jesus.
And, if you enjoyed this hymn, might I suggest you checkout this video link on YouTube for lovely version by George Beverly Shea.
   • That Beautiful Name  

Lyrics:

I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That angels brought down to earth;
They whispered it low one night long ago,
To a maiden of lowly birth.

[Refrain]
That beautiful name, that beautiful name,
From sin has power to free us!
That beautiful name, that wonderful name,
That matchless name is Jesus!

I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That unto a Babe was given;
The stars glittered bright throughout that glad night,
And angels praised God in heaven.

The One of that name, my Savior became,
My Savior of Calvary;
My sins nailed Him there, my burdens He bare.
He suffered all this for me.

I love that blest name, that wonderful name,
Made higher than all in heaven;
’Twas whispered, I know, in my heart long ago,
To Jesus my life I’ve given.
