EN(dur)ANCE by Robin Gudal

“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). Matthew 1:23, NIV

“Take the name of Jesus with you, child of sorrow and of woe. It will joy and comfort give you,

Take it then where’er you go. Precious name, O how sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heaven; take the name of Jesus ever, as protection ev’rywhere. If temptations ‘round you gather, Breathe that holy name in prayer.” — Lyrics by Lydia Baxter, 1870

“I speak Jesus” (lyrics by Charity Gayle): “I just wanna speak the name of Jesus, over every heart and every mind, ‘Cause I know there is peace within Your presence. I speak Jesus. ‘Til every dark addiction starts to break, declaring there is hope and there is freedom. I speak Jesus. ‘Cause Your name is power, Your name is healing, Your name is life! Break every stronghold, shine through the shadows, burn like a fire. 

Over fear and all anxiety, to every soul held captive by depression. I speak Jesus. Shout Jesus from the mountains, Jesus in the streets. Jesus in the darkness over every enemy, Jesus for my family, I speak the holy name. I just wanna speak the name of Jesus, over every heart and every mind, ‘Cause I know there is peace within Your presence. I speak Jesus.”

Call upon his holy name.
