Just Say "Jesus"

There is a wonderful contemporary Christian song out, "Just Say Jesus" by 7eventh Time Down that I just love. It reminds me of the really rough times in my life when I was so low that I couldn't pray for myself. It happens. This song reminds me and you to "Just Say Jesus".

"When you don't know what to say - Just say Jesus - There is power in the name - The Name of Jesus - If the words won't come cause you're afraid to pray - Just Say Jesus," (Chorus of "Just Say Jesus" by 7eventh Time Down)

There are many songs that recognize the value and preciousness of the Name of Jesus. People have been writing songs about the name of Jesus for years and years.

Bill Gaither wrote a song that my Daddy loved to sing, "There's Something About That Name." It goes, "There's just something about that name, Master, Savior, Jesus, like the fragrance after the rain; Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, let all Heaven and earth proclaim, Kings and kingdoms will all pass away, But there's something about that name."

In 1855, Frederick Whitfield wrote, "There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in my ear, The sweetest name on earth. O how I love Jesus, O how I love Jesus, O how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me!"

In 1779 John Newton wrote, "How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer's ear! It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, And drives away his fear."

It is comforting to know that saying the name of Jesus has brought peace and comfort to people for hundreds of years. The Bible confirms the strength and power that is in the name of Jesus.

"Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father," (Philippians 2:9-11 NIV). Amen!

On my knees I bow and pray

the Name of Jesus,

that's all I say.
