Red Street Records’ breakthrough CCM artist Iveth Luna releases her brand new single, “Just Like Jesus” alongside an accompanying music video, available everywhere today. Luna’s spirit of gratitude is lyrically clear and is paired with an expressive melody that powerfully portrays her awe of God.
Written by Luna, Cindy Morgan, and AJ Pruis and co-produced by Pruis and Red Street’s Kevin Rooney, “Just Like Jesus” sings to listeners about the unfailing love of God as it says, “It’s just like Jesus / To give me strength when I need it / Hope when I cannot see it / When I’m falling to pieces / It’s just like Jesus.” When describing the writing process, Luna shares, “… every lyric and melody felt like the journal entry of my heart for all He had done for me.” Today’s release follows her debut single, “In You,” which has received more than 9M lifetime streams and nearly 2M views on YouTube, peaking at No. 28 on the Christian radio chart and staying in heavy rotation on Air 1 for several months.
Lyrics:
Who says
I’m with you there in the dark
It won’t always be this hard
I’m holding your broken heart
And who says
I’m not scared of your fears
All your doubts bring ‘em here
I’m wiping all of your tears
He does
He does
It’s just like Jesus
To give me strength when I need it
Hope when I cannot see it
When I’m falling to pieces
It’s just like Jesus
To put me back on my feet when
I was out past the deep end
You wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Just like Jesus
Who is
A friend to all of the friendless
Fighting for the defenseless
Merciful in the messes
And who can
Make a sinner feel worthy
Lift the head of the hurting
Walk with those who are searching
It’s just like Jesus
To give me strength when I need it
Hope when I cannot see it
When I’m falling to pieces
It’s just like Jesus
To put me back on my feet when
I was out past the deep end
You wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Just like Jesus
His hands
His feet
His arms reaching
He wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Now I just wanna be
His hands
His feet
His arms reaching
He wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Just like Jesus
Oh, just like Jesus
It’s just like Jesus
To give me strength when I need it
Hope when I cannot see it
When I’m falling to pieces
It’s just like Jesus
To put me back on my feet when
I was out past the deep end
You wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Just like Jesus
(His hands, His feet, His arms reaching)
Just like Jesus
(He wanted me when nobody wanted me, now I just wanna be, now I just wanna be)
His hands
His feet
His arms reaching
He wanted me when nobody wanted me
Now I just wanna be
Just like Jesus
