[Chorus]
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
[Verse 1]
You read about Samson, from his birth
He grew to be the strongest man on earth
Way back yonder in the ancient times
He killed ten thousand Philistines
Samson was a man, been wandering about
No one found his strength [?] out
Not until his wife fell on her knees
Said "Tell me where your strength lies, if you please"
Samson's wife, she talked so fair
Samson said "My strength lies in my hair
You cut off my hair as clean as my hand
My strength shall become as a natural man’s"
[Chorus]
Samson is a witness (For my Lord)
Samson is a witness (For my Lord)
Samson is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
[Verse 2]
You read in the Bible and you understand
Methuselah was the oldest man
He lived nine hundred and sixty-nine
He died and went to heaven, Lord, in a-due time
[Chorus]
Methuselah is a witness (For my Lord)
Methuselah is a witness (For my Lord)
Methuselah is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
[Verse 3]
Daniel was a Hebrew child
He went to pray to his Lord for awhile
The king at once for Daniel did send
Then put him right down in the lions' den
God sent his angels, the lions to keep
Daniel laid down and he went to sleep
[Chorus]
Daniel is a witness (For my Lord)
Daniel is a witness (For my Lord)
Daniel is a witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
Witness (For my Lord)
Witness (For my Lord)
Witness (For my Lord)
My soul is a witness for my Lord
