    You have no idea, this song is my favorite song of 2018 to lead worship with. It’s probably been in 40% of my setlists since January, haha 🙂 The bridge is so powerful too, and of course I love Brooke so that’s what got me on to the song. There’s more resources here for it: https://worshipchords.com/hillsong-worship/what-a-beautiful-name-chords/ Thanks for all your posts Colton!
