(Reverb, dope)
(Hear me) (ah, nah, I can hear me)
James was caught by Herod, Herod captured Peter
They were sharin' Herod's outbreak of attacks upon believers
James would have to face the sword and Peter would escape it
They were not afraid of dyin', they both knew that they could take it
Thomas preached in Babylon and India, they claim
When the local folks impaled him with a lance while he was prayin'
They were all about to die, but they weren't thinking much about it
And their story didn't have a chance, but none of 'em were doubters
Why, oh why, would someone die if it was just a hoax?
Why then take the awful risk to tell us Jesus rose?
Simple men from Galilee would not have spoken lies
To get enrolled in history books as martyrs for Jesus Christ
Simon died along with Jude from arrows, spears or crosses
Someone gave Bartholomew a skin-removal process
Some of them were stoned alive, like James the son of Alphaeus
And their stories are the evidence that none of them were doubters
Why, oh why, would someone die if it was just a hoax?
Why then take the awful risk to tell us Jesus rose?
Simple men like you and me would not have spoken lies
To get well known in all the books as martyrs for Jesus Christ
A lot of guys were crucified for calling Him Messiah
Philip died and Andrew did, and possibly Matthias
Peter's was a most unpleasant death for being Christian
They would turn him upside down and then go through with crucifixion
Paul, he was beheaded, prob'ly Matthew did the same
Well, they threw off of the temple top the other guy named James
They were all about to die, but they weren't thinking much about it
There's a gory bunch of evidence that none of them were doubters
Why, oh why, would someone die if it was just a hoax?
Why then take the awful risk to tell us Jesus rose?
Simple men from Galilee would not have spoken lies
To get enrolled in history books as martyrs for Jesus Christ
When he opened the fifth seal
I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God
And the testimony they had maintained
(Hear me) (ah, nah, I can hear me)
