It seemed that while
the name of Jesus was sung... it could have been sung more. And so as I
listened I got this buzz in my head and heart to write a song that said the name
Jesus more times than any song I had heard in a while.
In fact it make me
think of an old hymn entitled "More About Jesus." And so below find
my version of More About Jesus.
If you are a musician
and you hear a tune while you read the words... go for it! There is a tune
"bumping like a fly on a window pain" in my head but I'm not ready to
let it out.
And so in keeping
with my #TwoOvrTen challenge. And instead of being too scared to share... here
it is warts and all.
Scriptural
Bases:
Therefore God has
highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,
10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on
earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus
Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11 ESV)
