Glory is your name.

 Glory Is Your Name

A Reflection on Psalm 8:1, 9 and Psalm 72:19

Glory is Your name—not just a title or a word,

But the heaviness of who You are, the truest ever heard.

When we speak Your name, we speak of light unending,

Of holiness, of mercy, of a love that keeps on bending

Down to rescue rebels, to lift the fallen, to heal the lame.

Glory is Your name.

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! (Psalm 8:1, 9)

Your name is glory—not a trophy to be shown,

But the shining of Your character, the essence You have known

From everlasting to everlasting—the same today as then.

Your name is glory, and it draws the hearts of men.

The seraphim cry, “Holy,” the elders cast their crowns,

And all the hosts of heaven speak the name that has no bounds.

For glory is not something You acquire or You wear;

It is the radiant atmosphere of everything You are, everywhere.

Blessed be His glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with His glory! Amen and Amen. (Psalm 72:19)

So I lift my hands and heart to You, the King of endless glory.

Your name is written on my soul—my life, my song, my story.

Let my worship rise as incense, let my every breath proclaim:

Glory, glory, glory is Your name.

Amen.
