My first attempt at posting anything to the forum. Hope it works. Thanks to Floyd Jane and PGMusic for the "Birth of a song" post. I've been trying to follow it step by step to post this.
His Name Is Jesus

A woman walking down the path with tears in her eyes,
‘cause she dearly loved that man, it’d been three days since he died.
Oh she saw him bleed, she saw the deadly wounds.
So it was so hard so believe when she saw an empty tomb.

Woman, why do you cry? Now’s not the time to grieve.
Don’t you know this was prophesied, and he’s fulfilled the prophecy?
Gods’ perfect lamb, he was sacrificed. Upon a cross, he gave his life.
And although dead and in the grave, he rose again, now the stone has been rolled away.


Now there’s a woman down the road, lost and all alone.
And not two thousand years ago, she’s right here now at home.
Will you go and talk to her, make known the Lord’s own words?
Will you share your faith? Will you find the strength to say …

Woman why do you cry? Now’s not the time to grieve.
Don’t you know that Jesus Christ did for you what he did for me?
You’re feeling all alone. Lost inside your pain. As if you’re chained to a stone,
but he can roll the stone away.


His name is Jesus. His name is Jesus. He came and freed us from our sins.
His name is Jesus and he’s redeemed us
with those thorns made into a crown and his blood that spilled upon the ground
‘cause through his blood and his pain, oh, we are saved. Just call upon his name. His name is Jesus.


There’s lost people everywhere. The world’s in such a mess.
With no answers anywhere, they’re just giving up I guess.
But we know someone that they don’t.
We know the Lord, so we know what the answer is …
It’s Jesus. His name is Jesus. His name is Jesus.
