Something About That Name

There’s just something about that beautiful name of “Jesus.“ It is POWERFUL. It causes emotions of either love or hate, there really is no middle ground when it comes to His name. He said himself that man is either for Him, or against Him.

When I say “Jesus” it makes me smile. If you love Him, it should make you smile too. Try it. Just say Jesus, Jesus, Jesus over and over out loud. Am I right? Didn’t it give you a warm fuzzy feeling? Told ya so….

It doesn’t affect everybody that way, though. I believe some people get offended because just the mere mention of the name of Jesus convicts them of their sin. Everybody living in this country has heard of Jesus and who He said He was. The unbelievers of this day are still like the Pharisees in Biblical times. Some things just never change. If they acknowledge He is who He says He is, then they have to look at their own heart and they don’t want to do that. If they continue in their denial, they have the misconception that they are safe in their sin. Such a pity that so many people miss out on so much love. It makes me sad for them.

I tried to write a little song about the sweet name of Jesus. I wish I knew how to write the music too. I can sing it though, although I don’t know what notes I’m in. Maybe some of you more talented people out there in Faithwriter’s land can put the music to it.

Something About That Name

There’s just something about that name
Something……..I can’t explain
Something that brings me peace in a storm
Something that makes me all warm

chorus
That precious Holy name
If in sin, will cause you shame
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
Oh how I love that name!
That precious Holy name
Holds salvation, free to claim
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus!
Oh how I love that name!

There’s just something about that name
T’was none other with so much fame
With the mere mention of the name of Jesus
May offend, or it just may please us

There’s just something about that name
It’s a scorching, burning flame
The power it holds in the human heart
To give life and a brand new start

Bridge
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! Sweetest name I know!
Fills my every longing, keeps me singing as I go!
(Guess y’all know I stole this part :)

Very good article and song, Julia. Sorry, I am not a musician, so can't give you music. But I like the theme of the article and song - Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. And now I am throwing out a general question to anyone who wants to answer it. I have seen so many pictures of Jesus lately that I do not like. The pictures show Jesus as a rather effeminate looking man -- too pretty, and also some of Him laughing. Now, I may be wrong, but I don't picture Jesus this way at all. The Scripture tells us that He was "a Man of sorrows, acquainted with grief." That doesn't sound either effeminate nor frivolous. Someone, please comment on this, or write an article about it. Opinions please.

I so love the original song AND yours. I could, I think, maybe hear the tune even. Might've been wishful thinking however. ;-) Jesus... It's the sweetest name I know! Jesus IS! Hallelujah! Let all heaven and earth proclaim, "There's just something about that Name!" :-D

As I read your article, the Gaither song was going through my head. It's one of their best loved songs. You are so right. Saying the name of Jesus brings a smile. Just this morning, I've been reading a Scripture that fits your article. It is 2 Corinthians 2:14,15. To some we are the fragrance of death, and to some, the fragrance of life. Blessings to you today!

I was just informed that there is a song written by Bill & Gloria Gaither with this same name. I looked it up on the internet and sure enough, there is. Although the words are different, it has the same "There's something about that name" - maybe I subconciously heard it before, who knows? Anyway, just a little disclaimer here that I was not aware of the other song when writing this one. Thanks. In Christ,

Julia
