Sometimes nothing can really describe what is going on but a song. "Your Great Name" by Natalie Grant, with my commentary.


Lost are saved, find their way

At the sound of your great name

At some point, we are all lost and need help to find our way. That is where Jesus comes in. He is always there to help us and guide us.

All condemned, feel no shame
At the sound of your great name

We are all sinful and fall short when compared with Jesus, yet, when we come to Him, there is no need for shame and condemnation. He is full of grace and mercy, not wrath and hate.

Every fear, has no place
At the sound of your great name

We do not have to be afraid of anything. There is nothing that can harm us. No matter how awful, how scary, how dark and dreary our days might seem, He is always there. There is nothing to be afraid of.

The enemy, he has to leave
At the sound of your great name

The devil has no place in this world because of Him. He was sent out once, and we all have to send him out and away. he will tempt us always, but he must go.

Jesus, worthy is the lamb
That was slain for us
Son of God and man
You are high and lifted up
And all the world will praise
Your great name

All the weak, find their strength
At the sound of your great name

God is almighty, omnipotent and gives strength to us. The road won't be easy that we have to go along, but He is always there, even in our weakest moments, to give us strength. To give us courage. To give us perseverance and all that comes with us. We might feel as though we are the weakest in the bunch, but we have the strongest God on our side. No one can take that away from us.

Hungry souls, receive grace
At the sound of your great name

God gives us grace. Each and every day. "...and then he told me, My grace is enough; it's all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9

The fatherless they find their place
At the sound of your great name

Some of us are blessed and so lucky to have earthly fathers, but even if we do or do not have an earthly father, we have a Heavenly Father. He is more than we can ever need.

The sick are healed, and the dead are raised
At the sound of your great name

There is no illness that is too strong. There is nothing that is final. Death is not the end. We have an eternal life with Him in heaven. And when the time comes, we will live forever with Him in his heavenly home that He has created for us.

Jesus, worthy is the lamb
That was slain for us
Son of God and man
You are high and lifted up
For all the world will praise
Your great name
Your great name

Redeemer, my healer
Lord Almighty
Sustainer, Defender
You are my king

The name of Jesus
You are high and lifted up
And all the world will praise
Your great name

Here is an excellent video of the song:
