Ye Shall Be My Witnesses

Ye shall be My wit­ness­es

Was Je­sus’ last com­mand

To ev­ery kin­dred tongue and tribe

In ev­ery clime and land;

Go

tell them of our Christ and say

His king­dom is at hand

Who will go and wit­ness for Je­sus?

Tell it out

tell it out

The bless­èd Gos­pel sound

Tell it out

tell it out

The news the world around

Till the name of Je­sus has

Been heard wher­ev­er man is found

Who will go and wit­ness for Je­sus?

Jesus has com­miss­ioned you

And me to go or send

A mess­en­ger in His dear name

His glo­ri­ous cross de­fend;

And He has pro­mised to be with us

Even to the end

God has said be of good cour­age

Neither be afraid

Though mount­ains seem to hedge the way

He says be un­dis­mayed;

For Je­sus is our cap­tain and

Will al­ways be our aid

Hear the suf­fer­ing mill­ions cry­ing

For the liv­ing bread

When Christ was here His words were

Let the mul­ti­tudes be fed.

Then haste wher­ev­er man is found

For all His blood was shed
