ANTHEM: You Will be My Witnesses by Joseph Martin
“You will receive power, when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” You are disciples of the One true Light, you are the people of the Way. You are the children of the Risen Christ! His words are calling still today! “You will be My witnesses! You will be My instruments of praise! You will be my witnesses of grace.” “Take to the world the Word of life, and you will never walk alone. Go seek the lost and speak words of love! Go find My sheep and bring them home!” Christ goes before us to prepare a place. Our life is meant for higher ground. Until we stand before Him face to face, His great commission still resounds. “You will be My witnesses! You will be My instruments of praise! You will be My witnesses of grace!”
