Before the worlds were created, there was Christ with God (John 1:1-2).
He has forever existed, and Himself is God (John 1:1-2; Acts 17:29; Rom. 1:20; Col.2:9 [deity]).
He made all things–Great Creator, by His perfect design (John 1:3; Gen. 1:26).
He is the light ever shining that enlightens mankind (John 1:4-5; John 8:12; 2 Cor 4:6).
He came to earth – “God with us” as the Son of Man (John 1:14; Matt 1:23; John 3:13-14; Php. 2:6-7).
His virgin birth, Hosanna! Part of God’s mighty plan (Isa. 7:14; Matt. 1:24-25; Rev. 13:8).
He was despised, Man of Sorrows, And rejected by men (Isa. 53:3; John 1:11; Mark 8:31).
But everyone who received Him was born again (John 1:12-13).
He healed the sick, Great Physician, made the blind man see (Acts 10:38; John 9:11-14).
He raised the dead, what a wonder, set the prisoners free (Isa. 61:1; John 12:1).
He gave His life, Lamb of Calvary, to atone for our sin, (Rom. 5:11; John 1:29, 36)
But He arose, hallelujah! And He lives again (Rom. 1:4; Rev. 1:18).
Well He ascended, holy, holy, To the throne of God (Luke 24:50-51; Eph. 4:8; Rev. 3:21).
Poured out His Spirit, glory, glory, as He promised He would (Joel 2:28; Acts2 17-18; Eph. 4:8-11).
He’s coming back, maranatha! Yes, He’s coming again (Rom. 16:22; 1 Thess. 4:15-17; Rev. 1:7).
He’s coming back, King of kings, Lord of lords, amen (Rev. 17:14)!
His name is Jesus, (Jesus), Jesus!
His name is Jesus, the mighty God.
His name is Jesus, (Jesus), Jesus!
His name is Jesus, the Living Word.
