Meaning & Inspiration
“Yeshua (Jesus)” by Folabi Nuel is a live worship song that calls on the name of Jesus using its Hebrew form, Yeshua. The chorus makes two promises in the same pattern: when we call You, You will answer, and when we call You, You will deliver. It then says there is no name greater than His, and the line is repeated so the congregation can sing it together.
The bridge strips the song down to the single claim that no name is greater than His name. It is returned to the first promise afterward, so the call and the answer are placed side by side. The outro repeats the same lines, which leaves the final emphasis on deliverance and on the name of Jesus.
The lyric is close to Philippians 2:9-10, which says God gave Jesus the name above every name, to Acts 4:12 on salvation in no other name, and to Romans 10:13, which says everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. The song is short, repetitive and focused on one name.
