Jesus That Name
Tommy Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jesus, what joy and peace just the sound of it brings
That name high above all name
No other name can make the darkness flee
No other name can our salvation bring
No other name can set the sinner free
Only Jesus Christ the King
Tommy Walker's song "Jesus That Name" is a powerful hymn of praise to Jesus Christ. The first line of the song - "Jesus, that name by which we have been saved" - conveys the idea that Jesus is the source of our salvation. The name of Jesus is not merely a label, but a symbol of the love and grace that He offers to all who turn to Him. The phrase "what joy and peace just the sound of it brings" suggests that the very mention of Jesus' name can bring comfort and hope to those who are struggling.
The second verse emphasizes the uniqueness of Jesus' name. No other name can have the same impact on our lives - "No other name can make the darkness flee, No other name can our salvation bring, No other name can set the sinner free." The message of the song is clear: Jesus is the one and only way to redemption and eternal life. The repetition of the phrase "Only Jesus Christ the King" at the end of the verse drives home this point and reinforces the idea that Jesus is the ultimate authority and ruler.
