30 Best Jesus Songs – Songs With Jesus In The Title
Last Updated: June 22, 2023 | Written by Matthew Campbell (Editor of My Wedding Songs and wedding DJ)
This is not your stereotypical list of Christmas songs. Our song lists celebrate Christ’s Birthday with a list of songs that have Jesus’ Name in the song title.
However, we did not include all Christian songs. We included a list of mainstream songs known by most of the mass public of all genres and eras. We want to show that all people from many walks of life celebrate Him.
One of the 10 Commandments is to not take the Lord’s Name in vain. However, we feel our list is more of a celebration than a mockery.
We not only include the Christian music genre. We also include Hip Hop, Country, Pop, Rock, Soul, and R&B. From 1972 through today, we listed popular songs you would find on the radio. Jesus is Lord.
