"When riding along on the highway with the group on our way to sing at Pueblo, Colorado, seeing the mountains in the distance and thinking of the mightiness of God, I found the opening line of the song, then on from there..." -- Doris Akers

Recorded with the Simmons Akers Singers which included Cora Martin :-)

He is mighty as a mountain
He is broader than the river
He is deeper than the ocean
Jesus is the Name!

He is Strength when there is weakness
He is Joy when there is sorrow
He is Food when souls are hungry
Jesus is the Name!

I know that Jesus, Jesus is the Name
Everyday He is the same
Yesterday, today, forevermore
Jesus is the Name!

He is Water when we're thirsty
He's a Ruler in high places
He's a Pillar I can lean on
Jesus is the Name!

If I'm nearing a perfection
It has been through His protection
Let me live by His direction
