English Translation

Chorus: The name of Jesus brings salvation (liberation), The name of Jesus brings peace—proclaim it!

1. Jesus is a flowing ocean of mercy, Jesus is the great Giver.
2. You were born in a manger, Jesus; You were sacrificed on the cross.
3. Jesus, have mercy on us too; we are ignorant sinners.
4. To erase the sins of us all, Jesus became the sacrifice.
5. You shed Your blood on the cross; You paid the full price.¹

Meaning (IMPORTANT)

This Bhajan is a foundational Hindi Christian hymn that centers on Soteriology (the doctrine of salvation) and the Atonement.² It teaches that:

• The Name: The name “Yeshu” (Jesus) is not just a title but a functional power that provides Mukti (Salvation) and Shanti (Peace).
• The Sacrifice: It contrasts Christ’s humble birth (Charni – manger) with His agonizing death (Krus – cross), emphasizing that our debt was “paid in full” (Sara chukaya daam).

When to Sing This Song

• Worship Openings: To shift the congregation’s focus toward the saving power of Christ.
• Lent and Good Friday: Specifically for verses 2, 4, and 5 which reflect on the crucifixion and the cost of sin.
• Evangelistic Meetings: It is a popular “bridge” song in South Asian contexts because its Bhajan style is culturally resonant.
