The Martyres

There was no place to hide, but straight ahead Oh how the people would chide, they wanted them dead But these men had no fear for they loved the Lord This being so vividly clear having struck a chord Traveling to such unfriendly places, both near and far To always be iin Gods graces says who you really are Beaten, imprisoned and killed what a life they lead Because from what God had willed these people never fled They went upon their way and preached His Word Such a part would they play for those who haven't heard Such love did they spread all in Jesus! Holy Name For in the words they said so many would never be the same Such mighty men were they, so pure and strong inside As they followed a Way where there was no pride It's to them that I pray that I should be so strong In this a new day where things are so very wrong
