LORD I Lift Your Name On High!
The chorus of the song: LORD I Lift Your Name On High
“You came from Heaven to earth to show The Way;
From the earth to the Cross, my debt to Pay;
From the Cross to the grave;
From the grave to The Sky;
LORD I lift Your Name on High!”
You came from Heaven to earth to show The Way: JESUS lived
about 33 ½ years on the earth as a human male. The first 30 He was tested,
tried and tempted as any human being. He overcame all temptation that is common
to humanity (Hebrews 4:14-16). He was tempted by the devil as the Son of MAN
(Matthew 4:1-11; Luke 4:1-13). He was rejected and murdered by the religious
and political leaders of His own people (John 1:10-11; Acts 5:29-30). During
that time He taught us how to live and serve GOD in the midst of a corrupt and
evil world (Matthew chapters 5-7; John 14:6).
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay: JESUS specifically
came to deliver us from sin and eternal judgment (John 3:16-17, Romans 10:9-10;
1 Peter 1:17-21).
From the cross to the grave: JESUS gave up His Life and was buried
(Matthew 27:45-66; Mark 15:33-47; Luke 23:44-24:12; John 19:28-42; Acts 1:1-3;
1 Corinthians 15:1-8).
From the grave to the sky: JESUS came back to Life (rose from
the grave) and ascended to The Father’s right hand (Mark 16:18-20; Luke 24:50-52;
Acts 1:9-11; Hebrews 1:8-13, 10:12; Revelation 3:21).
LORD, I lift Your Name on high: we worship GOD because He is
GOD! (Psalm 99:1-3; 100; 103:1-5; Matthew 6:9-10, 13; Revelation 4:8, 11).
