Lyrics Testify (Testify Album Version) - Gaither Vocal Band

From the sixth to the ninth hour
Darkness covered everything
The One who claimed dominion and power
Was hanging silent on a tree
But in three day, the women went to care for His tomb
Thinking that the lies were through
(Oh, but then thou) came an angel straight from Heaven
Telling them the best of news
"The One that you look for, well, He ain't here
Go tell the world what you see"

Somebody testify (somebody testify)
Send out a holy cry (send out a holy cry)
Let the whole world know (we gotta let 'em know, let 'em know)
Jesus is alive (Jesus is alive)
The stone has been rolled away
Come on and testify (testify, testify)

Sometimes pain is blinding
Darkness covers everything
And all the years of endless striving
Can give this world a hollow name
Oh, but to know, it doesn't matter what things look like
He's still on the throne (He's at the light)
Hand of God the Father and He's been given control
Brothers and sisters, listen to me
Let the truth set you free!

Come and testify (somebody testify)
Send out a holy cry (send out a holy cry)
Let the whole world know (we gotta let 'em know, let 'em know)
Jesus is alive (Jesus is alive)
Darkness will turn to day when you testify (testify)
Can I get a witness, yeah

You'll feel so much better
Letting go of everything
Can't keep your eyes on the weather
'Cause sunshine and rain, things always change
But never the word of God

Somebody testify (somebody testify)
Send out a holy cry (send out a holy cry)
And let the whole world know (let 'em know, let 'em know, let 'em know)
Jesus is alive (Jesus is alive)
Darkness will turn to day when you testify (testify), yeah
Come on and testify, yeah

Oh, the darkness will turn today when you testify, yeah
Ooh (testify)
