Be blessed with this beautiful gospel song of The Booth Brothers entitled “Testify.” Yes, every believer must testify about the transforming power of the gospel of Christ in their life. We must tell out story about Christ changing us and shaping us into His likeness!

About The Booth Brothers

The Booth Brothers was initially formed in the 1950s by Ron Booth Sr. with his brothers Charles, James, and Wallace, after they moved to Detroit. However, Ron decided to disband the group in 1963 when he joined The Toney Brothers. In 1990, Ron’s youngest son, Michael, decided to revive the group with his brother Ronnie II (b. June 28, 1965), and his father. They started performing and touring around Florida and recorded several albums. In 1998, Ron decided to retire and the remaining brothers started looking for a replacement. They recorded several albums with Joseph Smith, who was later replaced by Jim Brady. Brady remained with them until 2014, at which point he was replaced by Paul Lancaster.

Testify Lyrics

Song by The Booth Brothers

I’m looking for someone, for anyone
Who can stand up and tell what the Lord has done for ’em
Has He been faithful? Has He been merciful?
Come on now, I want someone to rise up and testify

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done
His love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify
I want to make it known
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify

Grace came to me and my soul is compelled
I’ve got such good news that I just can’t keep to myself

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done
His love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify
I want to make it known
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify

Feels like a fire that is shut in my bones
His Word says, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so”
Testify

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done
His love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify
I want to make it known
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify

Took away my guilt and sin (testify, testify)
Gave me peace and joy within (testify, testify)
Oh, I’m forgiven for everything that I’ve done wrong (I’m forgiven for – I’ve done wrong)
And if it’s true for you, get on your feet and sing along, yeah

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done (what my Lord has done)
His Love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify (wanna testify)
I want to make it known (want to make it known)
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify (come on and testify)

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done
His love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify (wanna testify)
I want to make it known (want to make it known)
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify

I’ve got to tell someone
What a mighty thing that my Lord has done
His love has changed my life
I’ve got to stand and testify (I wanna testify)
I want to make it known (want to make it known)
Can’t believe the mercy that I’ve been shown
Got joy and hope inside
I’ve got to stand and testify

Three Wooden Crosses Lyrics

A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher
Ridin’ on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
One’s headed for vacation, one for higher education
And two of them were searchin’ for lost souls
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
And eighteen wheelers can’t stop on a dime

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres
The faith and love for growin’ things in his young son’s heart
And that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give ’em all a better start
And that preacher whispered, “Can’t you see the Promised Land?”
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker’s hand

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

That’s the story that our preacher told last Sunday
As he held that blood-stained bible up
For all of us to see
He said “Bless the farmer, and the teacher, and the preacher
Who gave this Bible to my mama
Who read it to me”

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, now I guess we know
It’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway

Let The Healing Begin Lyrics

Let the healing begin.
We’re all hear together in one accord,
Brother and sisters and friends;
We came here in need of a touch from the Lord,
So let the healing begin.

No time like the present, no place like right here,
No other can cleanse you from sin;
If you came here in need of a touch from the Lord,
Then let the healing begin.
Let it begin, let it begin.

If you came here in need of a touch from the Lord,
Then let the healing begin.
Let it begin, let it begin.

If you came here in need of a touch from the Lord,
Then let the healing begin.
Oo – – – – – – – – – –
Let the healing begin.

Song It Must Be Christmas Lyrics
Artist David Phelps

Now the air is getting colder
And the sky is growing pale
Shoppers rushing with their presents
While the toys are still on sale
Lovers stroll along the parkway
As they wander hand in hand
It must be Christmas, Christmas again

Church bells ringing from the steeple
Echoing familiar tunes
Children dressed in shepherd’s clothing
Parents watching from the pew
Choirs singing “Hallelujah!
Spread the joy across the land”
It must be Christmas, Christmas again

Instrumental

Families gather ’round the table
Bow their heads in grateful prayer
For the blessed Virgin Mary
And the Savior she would bear
Baby lying in a manger
To redeem the souls of man
It must be Christmas, it must be Christmas
It must be Christmas, Christmas again

Jerusalem Lyrics

Song by The Hoppers

John saw the city, that could not be hid
John saw this city, oh yes he did
John caught a glimpse of the golden throne
Tell me all about it, go right on

Around the throne he saw a crystal sea
There’s got to be more, what will it be
I want to go, to that city he saw
New Jerusalem

Jerusalem
I want to walk, your streets that are golden
And I want to run, where the angels have trod
Jerusalem
I want to rest, on the banks of your river
In that city, the city of God

John saw the lion, lay down by the lamb
I wanna know everything about that land
John saw the day but he did not see night
The lamb of God, well, he must be the light

And he saw the saints worship the great I Am
Crying worthy, worthy is the lamb
I want to go to that city he saw
New Jerusalem

Jerusalem I want to walk your streets that are golden
And I want to run where the angels have trod
Jerusalem I want to rest on the banks of your river
In that city, the city of God

Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o’er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna forever
Forever more

Jerusalem
I want to walk, your streets that are golden
And I want to run, where the angels have trod
Jerusalem

I want to rest, on the banks of your river
In that city, the city of God
City of God
Jerusalem
Jerusalem
City of God
It’s the city of God
