Rich Mullins - Cry The Name

Chorus / Description : The song Cry The Name by Rich Mullins expresses a deep longing for God's presence and the power of calling upon His name. It reflects the biblical concept of seeking God's love and relying on Him for strength and deliverance. The lyrics resonate with Psalm 18:3, which says, I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.

Cry The Name Lyrics


I cannot hide this longing that grows
In this temple of silence and stars
But a thief in the night stole in and broke
Every chain that had bound up my heart
I cannot cling to shadows again
So here on this altar tonight
I lay every dream I've ever dreamt
To burn in the fire He lights

I cry the Name of the One who loves me
The Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

I cry the Name of the One who loves me
The Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

Every breath I've ever breathed
Was sent as a gift from on high
And with all that is left of all that is me
Up to the Heavens I cry

The Name of the One who loves me
The Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

I cry the Name of the One who loves me
The Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

The Name of the One who loves me
Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

I cry the Name of the One who loves me
The Name of the One on whom I call
Down these canyon walls

I cry out Your name
I cry Your name out
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls

The Name of the One on whom I call
'Til it roars like thunder
Rolling down these canyon walls
Down these canyon walls
