Meaning & Inspiration
"Jesus Be The Name" centers on a single request: that the name of Jesus stay "ever on my lips." The opening lines say the singer could sing His name "for all my life / And still find more to love each time," and the chorus returns to the thought "There's just something 'bout Your Name / That makes me cry holy," followed by the claim that "There is no other name."
The verses fill in what that name means. It is "like the morning light," the one "the darkness can't deny," "The resurrection and the life," and a name that can "save" and "heal" and "make the storm be still." Jesus is also called the bread of life, the King who "overwhelmed the grave," and "The Name above all other names."
The closing sections list what the name carries: healing, freedom and salvation, each followed by the line "It makes me cry holy." The language follows biblical passages on the name above every name, on salvation in no other name, and on Jesus as the bread of life and the resurrection.
