Скачать или смотреть We Are Surrounded (By a Great Cloud of Witnesses) | Christian Hymn | Saints of God | J. Martin

"We Are Surrounded (By a Great Cloud of Witnesses)" by Joseph Martin draws inspiration from Hebrews 12:1-3, inviting listeners to envision a great cloud of witnesses and saints encouraging them to persevere in faith, laying aside every hindrance and fixing their eyes on Jesus. This hymn uplifts with the assurance that, despite life’s challenges, we are never alone as we run the race set before us.

We are honoured to release this video on the weekend of The Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, celebrated annually on June 29th. It is a major feast day for the Catholic Church, honoring the martyrdom of two of the most important apostles, Peter and Paul.

Recorded live by the 2025 Combined Easter Vigil Choir at St. Francis de Sales Parish in Ajax, Ontario, Canada. Thanks for listening and God bless!

Lyrics:

We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses,
Looking on, encouraging us to do the will of the Lord!

We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses,
Let us stand worthy and be faithful to God’s call.

We must not grow weary doing what is right;
As we run with joy the race, we must run with all our might.

We must lay all earthly things aside that would hold us down.
We must claim the victory if we would win the crown.

We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses,
Let us stand worthy and be faithful to God’s call.

We are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses,
Let us stand worthy and be faithful to God’s call.

Amen
