Like many another Sunday school favorite, All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name comes in several different melodies. This one, I think, goes back to 1779.
Background sets by God the Father.

‘All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name’
This was one of my favorite hymns in Sunday school, although our hymnal had it with a completely different melody–All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name. This melody, here, is from two centuries ago. sung by Blue Rock Mennonite Youth.

Choir, orchestra, and organ all together–for this glorious hymn, All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, performed at Boe Memorial Chapel, St. Olaf’s College.
My most vivid memory of this hymn is from YMCA summer camp, sung by the counselors for Sunday morning service at the outdoor chapel on the hilltop, overlooking a patchwork of fields and woodlands. Too beautiful ever to forget.

‘All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name’ (the other melody)
This is the melody I know best for All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name, here sung as a processional by the choir and congregation at First Plymouth Church in Lincoln, Nebraska.
One of my most vivid memories is of the outdoor chapel at YMCA camp, overlooking a glorious vista of hills and fields and woodlands, with the camp counselors’ quartet belting out this hymn for all they were worth. Even just thinking of it now, going on 60 years later, deeply moves me.

‘Behold the Power’ (2016)
We sing “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name,” and so we should. But it would do us good to pause and think about that power–because we are flat-out lost without it.

Don’t believe me? Look at places, look into people’s lives, where that power is explicitly denied. Look at the shambles we’ve made of our world. I glanced at the news for just two or three minutes this morning and got sick to my stomach.
We and our world wouldn’t last another 15 minutes without the power of God’s grace.

Curtain Call, ‘All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name’
I’ve been calling upon my Lord Jesus’ Christ by name a lot, lately. I do that, Lord, because I believe in you and I believe your word.
All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name–and the congregation at Temple Baptist Church in Tennessee are not a bit bashful about singing it.
