Story behind the song
This song is probably one of the best songs that i have ever written. even though it is a simple chorus, the words and music are powerful. it is what i call worship at it's highest. Nothing but telling God how great and wonderful he is (Full Throttle). Passion and emotion is at the core of it's rendition. There was no magic that happened when i wrote this song. I started humming the tune in the shower and immediately i knew i was on to something, so i kept it in my head for a while. About an hour later i called my son over to the keyboard and started to sing the song and told him what chords to play. 15 minutes later the song was basically finished... It was all God, wanting to be exalted!!!
Lyrics
( Chorus )
How excellent is your name you are worthy of our praise
How majestic is your name glory to the lamb that was slain
you are king of kings lord of lords great almighty God
How excellent is your name and we're going to proclaim
( Repeat )
how excellent, how excellent, how excellent is your name
how excellent, how excellent, how excellent everyday the same
how excellent, so majestic is your name in all the earth
how excellent, how excellent, how excellent
we give you glory, we give you honor
we give you the praise we bless your name
we extol you, we magnify you
we lift you up where you belong
you are wonderful, you are marvelous
you are glorious, one of a kind
you stand alone, you reign supreme
you're in a class all by yourself
you're the king of king's, you're the lord of lord's
fairest of ten thousand, bright and morning star
you're the Daystar, lily of the valley
rose of sharon, that's who you are
wonderful counselor, almighty God
you're the prince of peace, everlasting father
you're the alpha and omega, you're the beginning and the end
Jehovah Jjireh you're my provider, Jehovah Rapha you are my healer
Jehovah Nissi you fight my battles, Jehovah Shalom you are my peace
Jehovah Tsidkenu you are my righteousness
Jehovah Medkedesh sanctify me, Jehovah Shammah the lord is there
right there, right there, in the midst of your trouble
in the midst of your struggles, in the midst of your trials
in the midst of your pain, how excellent, how excellent
how excellent is your name
you're so ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, ooh oh, excellent
how excellent - how
la da da, la da da, la da da, la da da
