Robert Gay is a contemporary American pastor, worship leader, and songwriter. Active in ministry since the 1980s, he serves as pastor of High Praise Worship Center in Panama City, Florida. Gay is widely known for No Other Name but the Name of Jesus (1978), a song of Christ-centered praise that gained international circulation through Integrity’s Hosanna! Music recordings. His writings and musical leadership emphasize the power of praise and the centrality of Jesus’ name in Christian life. J. S. McDuff (from Integrity/Hosanna!
