How Sweet The Name
Delirious Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If You'd never stopped to pull me through
What would this life had done
If You'd never whispered liberty
I heard You sing so sweetly a song of love
Jesus how sweet the name
The name that saves
The sound of grace
So many songs I've sung
But there's none more beautiful than You
And here I've found myself
So I'm happy to be lost in You
I hear You sing so sweetly a song called love
Jesus how sweet the name
The name that saves
Jesus how sweet the sound
The sound of grace
Jesus how sweet the name
The name that saves
Jesus how sweet the sound
The sound of grace, the sound of praise
The sound that saves
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Every soul needs a Savior
Oh, my soul needs a Savior
The lyrics of Delirious's song "How Sweet The Name" reflect a deep gratitude and reverence for Jesus Christ. The opening lines express wonder and speculation about what the singer's life would have been like if Jesus had not intervened and saved them from a darker path. Jesus is thanked for whispering "liberty" and for singing a "song of love" so sweetly. The song then goes on to exalt Jesus and declare him the "name that saves" and "the sound of grace". The singer finds themselves lost in Jesus and happy to be so, acknowledging that there is no other more beautiful song than that of Jesus.
The repetition of the phrase "Every soul needs a Savior" reinforces the central message of the song - that salvation and redemption can only come through Jesus. The lyrics are a powerful testament to the transformative power of Jesus Christ and the joy and gratitude that come from knowing him.

There is a brittleness and a purity to this song that tears you apart. One of my favourite songs - straight to the heart of Jesus' love and what He has done for us.

This song is so good I was listening to it in the car thinking it was another popular song and I'm so surprised that it's not
Just looked and realised this song is old and was published in 2008 I'm shook how have I not heard it before
