A Song a Day: Day 2

As I will be leaving early in the morning, I wanted to be sure to post this so as to not disappoint anyone out there actually invested in this journey with me. How lame would it be to default on this plan on the second day ; ) So without further to do, today's song is called "His Name is Jesus". I wrote this years ago in response to people commenting on their views of Christianity, about a damning God that sits loftily out of reach from humanity. I wanted to show people the Jesus that I serve. So enjoy! ~~Jackie~~


I have a friend, closer than a brother
Who takes care of me, loves me like no other
I was lost, He found me where I was
I was broken, He healed me just because
He loved me, had mercy, He’s the forgiver of my sins
He changed my life from the moment I let Him in

Chorus: His name is Jesus, you’ve heard of Him before
            Some call Him Master, Savior or simply call Him Lord
            His name is Jesus, you’ve heard of Him before
            Some call Him Abba Father, Friend of the weak, the poor
            No matter how you put it
            He saved me, gave me life brand new
            And what He’s done for me, He’s sure to do for you

He came in the form of man, yet still remained God
And because it was His father’s plan
He died to pay the debt that none of us could’ve ever met
In three days He raised, sealed a covenant that’s new
He’s the way to life eternal; I want to share Him with you
So let Him in, ask Him in
No pride, don’t hide, there’s no shame
I promise, you’ll never be the same
            Chorus

Jesus, Master, Savior, Abba
Friend, of the weak, the poor
Let Him, and you’ll find He’s that and more
