When I Say Jesus (Studio)
Lyrics
VERSE 1
You show me
Every breath I breathe is from You
Every fingerprint part of You
I am Yours from start to end
VERSE 2
You hold me
And even when I wander
You are never farther
Than just a word away
CHORUS 1
When I say Jesus
The very mention
Shatters the darkness
And calms my soul
When I say Jesus
Even a whisper
Breaks through my doubting
Till all my fear is gone
When I say Jesus
When I say Jesus
VERSE 3
You’re with me
Writing grace into my story
I’m surrounded by Your victory
There’s freedom in Your name
CHORUS 2
When I say Jesus
The very mention
Shatters the darkness
And calms my soul
When I say Jesus
Even a whisper
Breaks through my doubting
Till all my fear is gone
BRIDGE X2
At the name of Jesus
Every fear is broken
Nothing now can hinder
Your love that never fades
I cannot escape it
I cannot erase it
I cannot deny it
You are here to stay
CHORUS 1 X2
Behind The Music
Written during a season of loss, this song anchors our faith in the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. It reminds us that there’s hope and power in the name of Jesus. The very mention of His name can get us through life’s most difficult circumstances. It’s a powerful testament to God’s ability to destroy doubt and fear, and replace it with comfort and hope.
This song was included in our live album God So Good released in the fall of 2019, but found new life in this season. It’s a much-needed reminder that God’s calming peace and presence is with us through everything, even in turbulent times.
