The Good News Must Be Preached

The kingdom good news
Must be spread to all lands
Jehovah will bless
The work of our hands.

All men must know
The things yet to come
It must be complete
Before we are done

He sent the apostles
To begin this fine work
This great assignment
They would not shirk

So many friends
Set such good examples
Chances to preach
Opportunities ample

Some preached at school
Others on docks
Some went for miles
Taking long walks

The success that they had
Yes it really showed
Jehovah blessed them
And made their hearts glow

Some brothers built boats
To reach remote towns
Looking for interest
Where it might be found

Searching for all
Who might be deserving
Hoping that lives
They’d be preserving

Jesus is proud of
The work that we do
Not giving up
Until it is through

This work he began
While here on earth
Continuing on
With the kingdom’s birth

So many years
In so many lands
Jehovah has blessed
All of these hands

It takes a team effort
To get this work done
In all of the lands
Under the Sun
