Above All Names

Jeremiah, Moses, Joseph
Matthew, Jude and John
There's so many names in the Bible
You can just go on and on.

There's Isaac and Joshua
Peter, Job and Paul
This poem would be just to long
If I list them all.

But the name I really love the best
Is Jesus the Messiah
His name is above every name
Because it's so much higher.

Every knee should bow
And every tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is the Lord
The name above the rest.

Great poem Leon, there is no other name, the sweetest name I know but Jesus and how I truly LOVE Him so. This was such a inspiring poem and one that we all should be reminded of who's name is above all names. THANKS for such a well thought poem.
