Hey worship friends,
Here is a brand new worship song called "Your Name" written by Rick Altizer and John Driver. We would really love to have your feedback on it. It's a demo recording, so you'll have to "hear through" the production.
Please post your comments on the following:
-Lyric
-Melody
-Theology
-Corporate Singability
And of course, if you like it, sing it with your church! Thanks!
I think this a good worship song. It's very Christ/God focused versus being "God I'm worshipping you so you will do these great things for me" which I see so many recent songs have.
As the worship leader of an international congregation, it doesn't have big english words which can sometimes be hard for those whose native language isn't English. And the melody is easy enough to grasp. I would/will definitely be using this song. Thank you for passing it along.

Wow. This song is anointed, and I love how it describes my Deliverer, Savior, Refuge, Shelter, and so much more. It begins to put words that you want to say to God..and can be used corporately. I am a worship leader, and definitely want to do this song.

A wonderful song, easy to learn and draws you into His Presence and reveals the Majesty of our Lord.

I mut say that this a great worship song. It is simple enough to learn and introduce to our congregation and yet the words are powerful and anointed! Great song!

Great tune... I could see this song on the lips and hearts of worshipers for some time to come. There is so much power in the name of our creator... this song reveals that power in a new and fresh way. Great job guys.

To me the sweetest new worship songs are simple, capturing the moment and lingering in the heart as if One's spirit is in prayer long after the worship service has ended. "YOUR NAME" remains on my lips!

Great worship song! Very annointed and Biblically sound. We would definitely love to use this in our worship at church.

Agree with all of the above.
I would change name to "By Your Name" to avoid confusion with Paul Baloche's "Your Name".
I will also be using this song in worship, but have added a bridge and will probably add another verse to go with your additional one.
I hope you don't mind.
