We Are Witnesses For Jesus – Hymn Lyric
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the haunts of sin and shame,
In the underworld of sorrow
Where men seldom hear his name;
For to bind the broken-hearted
And their liberty proclaim,
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the haunts of sin and shame.
Refrain:
Tell the world, O tell the world!
Make salvation’s story heard;
In the highways, in the byways,
And in lands beyond the sea,
Do some witnessing for Jesus
Wheresoever you may be.
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the lands beyond the sea,
Where the millions bound by evil
Have no hope of liberty;
As we tell the gospel tidings,
Lo! the captives are set free;
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the lands beyond the sea.
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the home and in the mart,
Where the cares of life and fashion
Crowd the Saviour from the heart;
When we urge his claims with wisdom
Many choose the better part;
We are witnesses for Jesus
In the home and in the mart.
Meaning of We Are Witnesses For Jesus
Have you ever thought about being a witness for Jesus? It may sound intimidating, but being a witness for Jesus simply means sharing his love and message with others wherever you go. Just like the hymn says, we are witnesses for Jesus in the haunts of sin and shame, in the lands beyond the sea, and even in our homes and in the marketplace.
When we think of the haunts of sin and shame, we may picture dark and dangerous places where people are far from God. But as witnesses for Jesus, we are called to shine his light in these places. We can show love and compassion to those who are hurting or lost, and share the message of hope and redemption that Jesus brings.
In the lands beyond the sea, there are millions of people who have never heard the name of Jesus. As witnesses for Jesus, we can take the gospel message to these places and bring hope to those who are living in darkness. By sharing the good news of Jesus, we can set captives free and bring light to those who are in spiritual bondage.
But being a witness for Jesus isn’t just about traveling to far-off lands or going to the most dangerous places. We can also be witnesses for Jesus right in our own homes and in the marketplace. In the midst of our everyday lives, we have opportunities to share the love of Jesus with those around us. Whether it’s through our words, our actions, or our kindness, we can show others the difference that Jesus makes in our lives.
As the hymn says, we are called to “tell the world” and make salvation’s story heard. This means sharing the message of Jesus wherever we go, whether it’s in the highways, in the byways, or even in lands beyond the sea. No matter where we are, we can do some witnessing for Jesus and make a difference for his kingdom.
So, let’s be bold and courageous in sharing the love of Jesus with others. Let’s be witnesses for Jesus in the haunts of sin and shame, in the lands beyond the sea, and in our homes and in the marketplace. As we do, we can bring hope, healing, and salvation to those who need it most.
Remember, we are witnesses for Jesus, and we have a powerful message to share with the world. Let’s make salvation’s story heard wherever we go, and let’s do some witnessing for Jesus wheresoever we may be. Together, we can make a difference for the kingdom of God and bring light to those living in darkness. Let’s go out and be witnesses for Jesus today!
