I've decided to lay my worries down
I will not fear now
I will not fear now
Even with my sorrow, pain, and doubt
I will follow You
I will follow You
I will not be moved
I will call on you
No Higher Name
That's worthy of praise
That can free us from our chains
Author of faith
Your Kingdom reigns
Jesus, The Name above all names
You're the one that we proclaim
Higher Name
I will walk in the power of my God
You will fight for me
Oh, I know You'll fight for me
And Your right hand shatters all my enemies
You go before me
Oh, in all of Your glory
So I will not be moved
I will call on you
Higher Name
The Name of the Lord's a strong tower
The righteous run in and are saved
You're the Rock of our salvation
And we'll praise You for all of our days
The Name of the Lord's a strong tower
The righteous run in and are saved
You're the Rock of our salvation
And we'll praise You for all of our days
No Higher Name
That's worthy of praise
You're the one that we proclaim
No Higher Name
That's worthy of praise
That can free us from our chains
Author of faith
Your Kingdom reigns
Jesus, The Name above all names
You're the one that we proclaim
The eternal God who saves
