This song was written in the 70's. This is a first time rehearsal in 1991. Normally it was just done with an accoustic guitar. We were trying drums and a bass for the first time. The words are very powerful.
Jesus Christ what a beautiful name, what a perfect life perfect man, how sad when people call on you, curse your name and all you do'
It hurts me each time they say, your name in all those awful ways, how many times your head must turn, to hear your name and yet to learn...........it isn't for your help they call, it isn't for you at all, just joking they say your name, when they're mad, you get the blame,
They use you when they're plans gone bad, or when the world has made them sad, how many times I hear your name, and see your eyes looking near with pain.
It grieves me so to know the pain, you feel each time you hear your name, so greatly misused, how your heart must be bruised.
(Instrumental break)
Jesus Christ what a beautiful name, what a perfect life perfect man, how sad when people call on you, curse your name and all you do,
so when I hear them use your name, I don't want you put to shame, and when I know your attention near, I speak my love into your ears...... I love you Jesus..............I love you Jesus.........I love love you Jesus..........I love you Jesus
