‘All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name’

I hope you’ll pardon me for knocking off early from the nooze today. Sometimes enough is enough.

And so a hymn, instead: All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, sung by the Maranatha! Singers. The arrangement is a little hypermodern for me, but at least I found the melody I wanted.

This hymn forms part of one of my most vivid boyhood memories–an outdoor chapel service at Y Camp, overlooking a glorious spread of farmland and wooded hills, with the camp counselors singing the hymn. It’s been one of my favorites ever since.

I haven’t posted this hymn in a while, have I? All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name.

We sang this a lot in Sunday school and church; but in our hymnal, the lyrics were set to the melody of O Come, All Ye Faithful. I can’t find that version anywhere.

All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, one of my favorites in Sunday school–lyrics by Edward Perronet (in 1780), melody by James Ellor (in 1838), requested by Thewhiterabbit. This is another one I had in my head today.

This is the way we sang it in my church, the old Dutch Reformed. All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name goes with several different melodies–I’m sure I haven’t heard them all.

Performed here by choir and congregation at Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California.

My favorite memory of this hymn is from a gorgeous summer Sunday in the morning, at the Y Camp’s outdoor chapel, overlooking a glorious patchwork of farmed fields and rolling woodlands–and a quartet of camp counselors singing this in perfect harmony: All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name.

An old-fashioned Sunday school favorite–All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, sung by the congregation at Southwest Baptist Church in Oklahoma City.

Please, everybody pray for my wife: she’s not getting better, and we’ve both fallen way behind in our work. We appeal to the power of Jesus’ name–please, Father, heal us.

There’s a little glitch in this video, but I was lucky to find any performance of this hymn in this melody, the one we sang it to in our church, way back when. One of my favorite hymns–All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, by Shane & Shane–more modern than I’d choose, but still beautiful.

This is how we sang this hymn in the old Dutch Reformed Church, wherein I was raised–All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name. I don’t often get to hear it sung to this melody anymore, so I’m thankful to the choir at Temple Baptist Church for selecting it.

This is a hymn that needs to be sung again and again, loudly–that the Lord might use His power, and save us: All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name. What name will the enemy invoke against it?

Come on, everybody–let’s have some hymn requests.
