We’ve had many names attached to God
Of Canaanite descent ‘tis rather odd
From El Shadday, the all breasted one
To Baal, the bull, his trusted son
Seems God became so coalesced
We did not know Him at His best
There’s Asherah El’s supposed wife
Whose escapades brought in much strife
The patriarch’s thought they could see
But God told Moses, “That’s not Me”
Who shall I say I represent
I AM THAT I AM without descent
Jehovah is the name to call
It means salvation for them all
Then take my name that all may see
And nail it to the tallest tree
To take man’s sin, burn away the dross
As I take my place upon the cross
Say I AM THAT I AM has sent me
Become my witness across the sea
Nothing more than a simple lamb
Whose name is just I AM THAT I AM
All’s been accomplished no more to be done
I’ve given the power to Jesus my son
Alpha and Omega, beginning and end
No more will I be a coalesced blend
Not another name will they try to cram
Into the only…I AM THAT I AM
Who won’t sit to study Word for a while
Will never be able to reconcile
That the Word although divinely inspired
Was translated through men King James hired
