Without Him I could do nothing
Without Him I'd surely fail
Without Him I would be drifting
Like a ship without a sail

Jesus, O Jesus
Do you know Him today?
Please don't turn Him away
O Jesus, O Jesus
Without Him, how lost I would be

Story Behind the Song

This track is a medley of three twentieth-century gospel songs centered on the person and name of Jesus. Audrey Mieir’s “His Name Is Wonderful” arose in the late 1950s and became widely used in evangelical worship. Mylon LeFevre’s “Without Him” and Bill and Gloria Gaither’s “There’s Something About That Name” likewise entered many gospel and church repertoires in the 1960s and 1970s. All three songs are still under copyright, so their full lyrics are not reproduced here.
