What Does Jesus Mean To You?

 

whatdoesjesusmeanThis songs is from a poem that I wrote long ago when the “Jesus Movement” was prevalent and many were talking about Jesus, some were impressed with “Jesus Christ Superstar” and other music that were really a mock on my Savior.  I was so hurt by the way Jesus was portrayed that I wrote this poem which sat in my files until only a vew years ago when I put it to music.  One needs to listen to the words and think serious about how Jesus is and what does he mean to you in your life.  If you are a true born again Christian, he is far more than a curse word or a man in history, he is your dearest friend and the Savior of the world.  Enjoy this piece on the violin – No One Ever Cared for Me Like Jesus:

What Does Jesus Mean To You?

 

1. My Jesus means the world to me, He’s words no tongue can say.

He’s in me where I need Him most; he hears me when I pray.

 

Refrain

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.

 

2.  My Jesus means new life to me; He takes lives wrecked by sin,

And in that earethen vessel puts a Treasure deep within.

 

Refrain

 

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.

 

3.  My Jesus is a comfort true, He sees my tear stained face,

And undergirded by arms of love He shows me all His grace.

 

Refrain

 

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.

 

4.  It grieves me so to hurt my Lord; I know that I’m to blame.

My sins nailed Jesus to the cross and brought Him grief and shame.

 

Refrain

 

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.

 

5.  The greatest work I do for Him is done on bended knee.

He needs a friend to hear Him too, I’m glad one friend is me.

 

Refrain

 

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.

 

6.  My Jesus is a friend so dear, my heart and His are one.

He through me seeks the lost He loves and smiles when they are won.

 

Refrain

 

What does Jesus mean to you?  Just a word you use in vain?

Or just some man in history, do you understand His name?

Did you know he shed his blood for you, and He rose in victory?

If you take Him now you too will know just what Jesus Means to me.
