The Greatest Name

by (1867–1939)

Listen in the reader

Let nations rise from shore to shore, And sing it over o'er and o'er; Then wars shall cease forevermore: ALLAHO ABHA!

Great Name of joy, of peace, and rest; That fills with harmony each breast; It's glory shines from east to west: ALLAHO ABHA!

Repeat it, and it reaches far; From world to world and star to star; Naught can its glorious radiance mar: ALLAHO ABHA!

Great Name we love more every day, To say over is to pray, And angels listen and obey: ALLAHO ABHA!

Its rhythm swings from pole to pole; Its music soon shall fill each soul; And heavens scroll shall backward roll: ALLAHO ABHA!

ALLAHO ABHA! Let it ring Up to the throne of God, our King; Let men and angels joyous sing: ALLAHO ABHA!
