COMMENTS
In both of these songs the church members effortlessly moved from a unison format verse format (with a lead singer starting the verse) to a call & response format and back to the unison format.

A 1991 Baptist Hymnal provides credits the words & tune for this song as "traditional African American". Here are the words from that Hymnal:
Bless that wonderful name of Jesus [3x]
No other name I know.

Other verses using the same format:
Sing that wonderful name...
Preach...
Praise...
Share...
