His Precious Name 1996

It hurts when I hear His name,
how often I've heard it spoken,
by those who use it in vain.

Just this week I spoke it myself,
in an unholy way not heartfelt.
A thoughtless use of Heaven's name.

Do not think it goes unheard,
or hide the slip of the tongue,
He surely knows when all is said and done.

Speak His precious name in Holy Praise,
with reverence, respect and care,
your voice His honor and glory declare.

That others may see your adoring devotion,
and when you use His precious words,
others will know His message is being heard.

Psalm 29:2  Give to the Lord the glory due
His name.  Bow down before the Lord's
holy splendor.
