Darlene Zhchech - In Jesus' Name Lyrics
Lyrics
God is fighting for us
God is on our side
He has overcome
Yes He has overcome
We will not be shaken
We will not be moved
Jesus You are here
Carrying our burdens
Covering our shame
He has overcome
Yes He has overcome
We will not be shaken
We will not be moved
Jesus You are here
I will live
I will not die
The resurrection power of Christ
Alive in me and I am free
In Jesus' Name
I will live I will not die
I will declare and lift you high
Christ revealed
And I am healed
In Jesus' Name
God is fighting for us
Pushing back the darkness
Lighting up the Kingdom
That cannot be shaken
In the Name of Jesus
Enemy's defeated
And we will shout it out
Shout it out

Meaning & Inspiration
Darlene Zschech's powerful anthem, "In Jesus' Name," released in its official live video on March 26, 2013, is more than just a song; it's a profound declaration of faith and the authority vested in the name of Jesus Christ. The track emanates from a deep well of spiritual understanding, encapsulating the transformative power found in surrendering to God's will and proclaiming His victory. The narrative woven into "In Jesus' Name" speaks to the Christian's ability to face any circumstance, be it hardship, doubt, or opposition, with unwavering confidence because of who Jesus is and what He has accomplished. The message resonates with the biblical truth that through Christ, we possess the power to overcome the world, as stated in John 16:33: "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” This song is an embodiment of that very overcoming spirit.
Analytically, "In Jesus' Name" functions as a spiritual weapon, equipping believers with a reminder of the efficacy of prayer offered in the name of Jesus. The song articulates the foundational principle that all authority and power in heaven and on earth belong to Christ (Matthew 28:18), and therefore, invoking His name carries divine weight. This is powerfully underscored in passages like Philippians 2:9-11, which proclaims, "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 acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” The music encourages listeners to approach God with boldness and assurance, knowing that their pleas are heard and answered not by their own merit, but through the finished work of Jesus. It’s a call to live a life that actively recognizes and wields the authority of Christ in every aspect, from personal struggles to corporate worship. The song beautifully reflects the scriptural instruction found in Colossians 3:17: "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Through its earnest delivery and profound theological underpinnings, "In Jesus' Name" serves as an enduring testament to the unshakeable foundation of faith in the redeemer.
