My name is Michael Oaks, I am 74 years young and need desperately to find the artists name to a contemporary Christian song that I heard around 1985 from my home in Grants Pass, Oregon. The station originated from Redding California. I have long since lost the tape; however I would love to know the artist's name so that I might retrieve a copy. The song was sung by a male vocalist that was almost a double for David Gates, backed by beautiful modern phrasing on a guitar. The name of the song was Jesus Your Name. Not the one done by Morris Albert. The lyrics are as follows:
Jesus, Your Name
Jesus, your name spells happiness
Jesus, your name spells love
It soothes my soul and comforts every part of me
Cause peace like this comes only from above.
Jesus, your name whispers cling to me
Jesus, your name is a song
And every note I sing is full of praise to you
To you and you alone, this world belongs
Bridge
If I gained this world below and didn't know you
I wouldn't know the road that leads to life
But thanks to you this world is unimportant
The only way is walking in your light.
Jesus, your name whispers peace be still
Jesus, your name spells love
It soothes my soul and comforts every part of me
Cause peace like this comes only from above
Tag
Cause peace like this comes only from above... Jesus
Please help me
