I know a Name
That can silence roaring waves
I know a Name
That can empty out a grave
I know a Name
It's the only Name that saves
And it's worthy of all praise

CHORUS 1

I call You Jesus
I call You, I call You Healer
Risen and reigning in power
Something comes out of the grave
Every time I call You Jesus

Worthy of glory forever
Something comes out of the grave
Every time I call Your Name

That has crushed the serpent's head
Our resurrected Great I Am

I Know A Name - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

The song "I Know A Name" by Elevation Worship is a powerful anthem that speaks to the transformative power of Jesus' name. It echoes the sentiments found in Philippians 2:9-11, "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, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." 

The lyrics of the song and this scripture passage both emphasize the supremacy of Jesus' name. They remind us that His name carries power, authority, and salvation. When we call on His name, we are invoking the presence of the One who conquered death, healed the sick, and brought hope to the hopeless. 

The song also resonates with the promise found in Romans 10:13, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." This verse assures us that salvation is available to all who call upon Jesus' name. The lyrics, "I call You Jesus, I call You, I call You Healer, Risen and reigning in power, Something comes out of the grave, Every time I call Your Name," beautifully encapsulate this promise. 

The song's refrain, "Dead things come alive, In the Name of Jesus," echoes the story of Lazarus in John 11. Jesus, called by name, arrives at Lazarus' tomb and commands, "Lazarus, come out!" And the man who had been dead for four days comes out of the grave, alive. This miraculous event is a testament to the life-giving power of Jesus' name. 

As we reflect on these truths, let's consider this: How often do we call on the name of Jesus in our daily lives? Do we recognize the power and authority that His name carries? Are we aware of the transformation that can occur when we invoke His name in faith? 

The song "I Know A Name" and the corresponding scriptures challenge us to not just know the name of Jesus but to call upon it, to believe in its power, and to expect transformation. As we go about our daily lives, let's remember to call on the name of Jesus, not just in times of trouble, but in every moment, knowing that His name brings life, healing, and salvation.
