Neale, co-writer Krissy Nordhoff and Grant share the story behind YOUR GREAT NAME at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6LW7yz-1wU.
Jesus, worthy is the Lamb that was slain for us / Son of God and man
You are high and lifted up / And all the world will praise Your great name
The song HOPE OF THE BROKEN WORLD was also honored, receiving a Dove Award for Inspirational Recorded Song of the Year. HOPE OF THE BROKEN WORLD was written by Jennie Lee Riddle, who in 2010 won a Dove Award for Worship Song of the Year for penning REVELATION SONG.

You are the day spring / You are the morning star / Creation's splendor speaks of who You are
You are salvation / You are the joy of the earth / Restoration comes / Hope of the broken world
