Jesus I'm In Love

Gratitude for rescue comes first here: "You have restored the joy of salvation / Am no captive to fear anymore." Eben sings in the language of testimony, listing what Jesus has given, namely strength and life, before turning from thanks to devotion.

The second half shifts the address from what He did to who the singer is in response. "Jesus am in love with you" is paired with "Jesus am a living sacrifice," and the request "Take all the praise" is repeated like an offering handed over. A recurring line in another language, "e mara nma ne nma," is left untranslated in the lyrics and returns after each stanza as a kind of refrain.

The words echo Psalm 51:12, where the psalmist asks for the joy of salvation to be restored, and Romans 12:1, which urges believers to present themselves as living sacrifices. The line about no longer being captive to fear also matches 2 Timothy 1:7.
