“Always Only Jesus” Lyrics
There’s no greater love than Yours
That tells the dead to sleep no more
With just the sound chains will break
There is freedom In Your name
There is freedom In Your name
Every breath I’m breathing
Will be filled with praise
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
Let my heart cry holy
And my hands be raised
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
Fill the earth flood the sky
Let all creation magnify
The righteous will sing as evil shakes
There is power In Your name
There is power In Your name
Every breath I’m breathing
Will be filled with praise
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
Let my heart cry holy
And my hands be raised
Just for one name
|Always only Jesus
Sing the name
That took on sin
Oh sing the name
That finished it
Jesus
Hallelujah
Oh sing the name
That took on sin
Oh sing the name
That finished it
Jesus
Hallelujah
Every breath I’m breathing
Will be filled with praise
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
Let my heart cry holy
And my hands be raised
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
Just for one name
Always only Jesus
