Zach Williams and Dolly Parton ~ There Was Jesus (lyrics)

MUST SEE! This very special live-action music video was made for the new song, “There Was Jesus” which features the timeless voices of Dolly Parton and Zach Williams. It is difficult to make a music video with live action video portraying Jesus, but we’ve done just that for this inspirational song that sent chills throughout my body. When you realize that the Lord is with you in every minute, and every moment, you find yourself in awe and reverence. I recommend that you listen to this song at least three times; I would then be surprised if it is not one of your new favorites. It’s that good!The concept of the song is this: we are all on a journey in this life, and many times we feel alone in the midst of our troubles. The song delivers the lamentations of the downtrodden, and then proclaims the truth that there is One who walks WITH us and fights FOR us in our troubles: “every minute, every moment; there was Jesus”!Consider these Biblical scriptures to reinforce the theme of the song:“The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.” (Zephaniah 3:17)“For the LORD your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon or destroy you or forget the covenant with your ancestors, which he confirmed to them by oath.” (Deuteronomy 4:31)“For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.” (Deuteronomy 20:4)“God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1:9)If you enjoy the music, please support the artists by purchasing their songs through your favorite music store or app.Connect with us:Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/AspireChristianMusicTwitter at https://twitter.com/music_aspire"There Was Jesus"(feat.
