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
x2
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
Carrying our burdens,
Covering our shame
He has overcome,
Yes He has overcome
We will not be shaken,
W 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
repeat
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, in Jesus' Name
In Jesus' Name, in Jesus' Name

Meaning & Inspiration
“In Jesus’ Name” is a declaration of confidence in the victory and resurrection of Christ. Its opening lines portray God as present in conflict, bearing burdens and covering shame, while the recurring assurance that believers will not be shaken emphasizes steadfast faith. The chorus answers fear with the confession, “I will live, I will not die,” grounding freedom and hope in the risen Christ rather than in personal strength.\n\nThe bridge expands that confession into praise: darkness is pushed back, the kingdom remains unshaken, and the name of Jesus becomes the center of victory. References to resurrection power, healing, and Christ revealed give the song a strong Easter-shaped message even beyond a particular celebration. Its language closely reflects biblical themes of the Spirit who raised Jesus giving life, the faithful declaring the works of the Lord, and Christ triumphing over hostile powers. The song brings those themes together as energetic praise rooted in the authority of Jesus.
