I know what you're thinking. Aren't all Christian songs about Jesus? Mostly, yes. But some are about finding Him, some are about needing Him, some are about His grace, some are about His gift. The songs on this list are musical testimonies to every different part of what Jesus does for us. Put together in a playlist they still don't come close to telling the whole story, but maybe begin to form a picture of what is possible when you surrender your heart to Him. I've included a lyric from each song that I feel shows another aspect to who Jesus is and what He does in our lives. Read on, pick your favorite, and let me know if I missed one that you think will add to the final portrait.
