J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S…

Ok, see I know the trends
It's like a rapper's got to put out a track with His name in the hook
They're like, "You can't put Jesus all up in the chorus, man".
I keep it simple I just say this
Listen man.

See, we'll soon be leaving, so best to believe Him
And just give thanks for the breath that you're breathing.
He sent his son to rescue the heathen
He's so strong even death couldn't keep Him.
After three days He raised up.
Now, He freed us and switched the game up.
So, we just gotta give the praise up.
Jesus, I'm a lift your name up, straight up.
You gotta admit it's strange that a man who healed both sick and lame,
In return got inflicted with pain
Whipped and blamed, stripped and shamed.
But hold up! Cause in the midst of the pain was a plan for God and man to be connected again.
You understand what I just explained, and get your hands up let's lift this thing.

J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.

See God's grace is the most gracious great gift.
God so loved this world that he gave His
Only son – JESUS! The holy one.
Through him we can overcome.
Holding on to the faith and erasing fear,
I clutch to God's word like I'm changing gear.
Earth isn't my home, I'm a stranger here,
So I don't care if they say I'm weird, it's all good.
The righteous man's steps are ordered
See we ain't gonna fall into traps like fools did
In fact, when the trials of life get awkward,
Just treat them like whacked CDs and press forward.
Cause we ain't got room for letting in doubt.
He paid for our sins we ain't selling him out.
Only one that you can't get to heaven without
You know his name, we be yelling it out, let's spell it out.

J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.
J-E-S-U-S
We're just praising the name that's above all names.
The only name under heaven whereby any man can be saved.

Father I'm undone.
A million and one tongues ain't gonna praise You enough for what your son done.
The only one who overcame the enemy,
Better than a shrink, His words the best therapy.
The same dude who prayed at Gethsemane
And by his own *upped* the trade like John F. Kennedy
You know he came to pay the death penalty,
But he wouldn't stay in the grave like Pet Semetary.
Cause the Word say, He resurrected on the third day
So He could get a second birthday.
Now let heaven and earth say,
All praise to Jesus, He's worthy, that's right.
I know it might sound quirky,
But when the chorus is on Jesus, they say it's churchy.
But that don't concern me,
I'm giving praise for His grace and His mercy, come on.

J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.
J-E-S-U-S
Messiah, there's none higher.
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.

One that praised me,
One that saved me.
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.
My rock, my strength, my saviour.
J-E-S-U-S, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess.
J-E-S-U-S
J-E-S-U-S, our Lord.
Let's praise Him
J-E-S-U-S
Yeah Lord, he has the praise of His people, so let's praise Him.
Yes Lord.
Put your hands in the air!
Come on, get your hands up, let me see you get your hands up.
J-E-S-U-S, our Lord.
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah to the conquering Lion of Judah.
Hallelujah, every knee shall bow, every tongue confess, yes.
