The lyrics of this song are emotionally personal to me. The chorus captured me when it sings "go beyond religion." That hit me hard because that reminded me of how Christianity is not a religion where I just do do do and try to please others by my actions and outward appearance...what it's really about is a relationship with God, one that's daily, personal, and embracing. We look around the world and see the chaos and disorder. This was not meant to be, but since the fall of man, sin has entered the world and we now live in an imperfect and fallen world. However, through Jesus' name, His grace, and His mercy towards me, I now live to change the world, not to what I want it to be, but so that His name would be lifted high by all tongues, by all nations. That is the POWER of his name :]
Also, please check out Brewster's amazing story behind this song! and listen to his song!!!

Power of Your Name
by Lincoln Brewster
Verse 1
Surely children weren't made for the streets
And Fathers were not made to leave
Surely this isn't how it should be
Let Your kingdom come
Verse 2
Surely nations were not made for war
Or the broken and due to be ignored
Surely this couldn't be what You saw
Let Your kingdom come
Here in my heart
Chorus
And I will live to carry your compassion
To love a world that's broken
To be your hands and feet
And I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion to see the world be changed
By the power of Your Name
The power of Your Name
Verse 3
Surely life wasn't made to regret
And the lost were not made to forget
Surely faith without action is dead
Let Your Kingdom come
Lord break this heart
Bridge
Jesus Your Name
Is a shelter for the hurting
Your Name
Is a refuge the weak
Only Your Name
Can take the undeserving
Jesus Your Name
Holds everything I need
