Lyrics
JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
THERE IS WISDOM IN MY WEAKNESS
THE DARKEST HOUR SEEKS FORGIVENESS
I TURN MY FACE TO THE RISING SUN
AND FEEL THE WARMTH THAT TOUCHES EVERYONE
(PRE-CHORUS)
I GET DOWN ON MY KNEES AND PRAY JESUS PLEASE
COME INTO MY HEART AND EASE THE PAIN
OH JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
CHORUS)
JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
OH SWEET JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU TAKE HIS HAND
THAT JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
I WAS LOST I COULD NOT WIN
IN MY DESPERATION I FOUND HIM
LIKE JOSHUA, I HEARD AN ANGEL CALL
I SAW THE LIGHT AND DOWN CAME THE WALL
(PRE-CHORUS)
(CHORUS)
JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
OH SWEET JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU TAKE HIS HAND
THAT JESUS IS MORE THAN A NAME
