Jesus, the Name That Saves
Jesus—the name that saves.
Not a mantra chanted into empty space,
Not a magic formula to earn a moment's grace,
But the name of the One who stepped into our place.
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12)
Jesus—the name that was given from above,
The embodiment of the Father's boundless love.
It means "The Lord saves," for He came to do
What no other power or person could do.
Jesus—the name that breaks every chain,
That calls the dead to life again.
It silences the accuser's voice,
And gives the mourning heart a reason to rejoice.
If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9)
It is not a name for the perfect and the strong,
But for the broken who have done much wrong.
For the weary, the wandering, the lost, the least—
Jesus opens the door to the wedding feast.
Jesus—the name above every name,
Before whom all powers bow in shame.
Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess,
That He is Lord, in righteousness.
Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow... and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord. (Philippians 2:9-11)
So I call on that name—not just today,
But every moment along the way.
For there is power, there is grace,
There is hope, there is peace, there is a resting place.
In the name of Jesus, I am saved.
In the name of Jesus, I am loved.
In the name of Jesus, I am free.
Forever and always, He saves me.
Amen.

This truth is the heartbeat of the Gospel. The name Jesus is not merely a historical label, but the declaration of His mission: "He will save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21). It is the only name that bridges the gap between a holy God and a sinful humanity. To call upon His name in faith is to be rescued, redeemed, and welcomed into the family of God.
