His Name Is John

Lyrics

[Intro] Hey! Hey! Everybody, clap your hands! Come on, children, let’s sing! God had a plan! God had a promise! And everybody say— [Chorus] His name is John! His name is John! His name is John! Hallelujah! His name is John! His name is John! God kept His word! His name is John! [Verse 1] There was a priest named Zechariah And Elizabeth, too They loved the Lord And they trusted Him In all that God would do Gabriel came with a message From heaven, clear and bright “Don’t be afraid God heard your prayer A baby’s on the way tonight!” [Pre-Chorus] Zechariah wondered How can this be? But God was working Just like He said [Chorus] His name is John! His name is John! His name is John! Hallelujah! His name is John! His name is John! God kept His word! His name is John! [Verse 2] Elizabeth smiled and laughed out loud “What joy the Lord has sent!” Neighbors came by And they praised God For the miracle He meant Then Zechariah wrote on the board “John” was the name God chose And every heart Began to sing For the blessing God had shown [Pre-Chorus] When God makes promises They all come true He never forgets What He said He’d do [Bridge] God hears a faithful prayer God sends a perfect plan God gives a shining gift To every waiting man [Final Chorus] His name is John! His name is John! His name is John! Hallelujah! His name is John! His name is John! God kept His word! His name is John! His name is John! His name is John! Praise the Lord! His name is John!
