But You Shall Receive Power
Empowered Witnessing: Unveiling the Spiritual Message
Lyrics
But you shall receive power
Reassurance of empowerment
When the Holy Spirit comes upon you
Empowerment comes with the presence of the Holy Spirit
And you shall be My witnesses
Assignment to be witnesses for a greater purpose
Unto the uttermost part of the earth
Mission to spread the message globally
The blessing of the Spirit
Recognition of the Spirit's blessing for church building and global filling
To build the church and fill the earth
Purpose of building the church and filling the earth
With the blessing of the Triune God
Blessing originating from the Triune God
Is poured out on the one accord
The blessing is bestowed when people are united in purpose
But you shall receive power
Reiteration of the promise of empowerment
When the Holy Spirit comes upon you
Linking the reception of power to the Holy Spirit's arrival
And you shall be My witnesses
Continuation of the witness role as a significant responsibility
Unto the uttermost part of the earth
Restatement of the mission to reach the farthest corners of the world
Mathew 24:14
Reference to Matthew 24:14 as a foundation for the mission
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached
Declaration of the widespread preaching of the kingdom's gospel
In the whole inhabited earth
Global scope of the message for all inhabited areas
For a testimony to all the nations
Testimony to be given to all nations
And then the end will come
Anticipation of the end contingent upon the completion of the mission
But you shall receive power
Reiteration of the forthcoming empowerment
When the Holy Spirit comes upon you
Connection of power reception with the Holy Spirit's presence
And you shall be My witnesses
Confirmation of the ongoing responsibility to bear witness
Unto the uttermost part of the earth
Emphasis on the global extent of the witness mission
