<TITLE>24. Par 175-180</TITLE>L-175 Now, while we sing this next verse, I want you to shake hands, like you do each night, all the Methodist, and Baptist, and Presbyterian. Shake hands with one another, and even be friendly enough to chew each other's chewing gum, if you can. Now, just be real, real friendly, being sociable now while we sing it.
I'm one of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say I'm one of them;
One of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say I'm one of them.
Though these people may not learn to be,
Or boast of worldly fame,
They have all received their Pentecost,
Baptized in Jesus' Name;
And they're telling now, both far and wide,
His power is yet the same,
I'm so glad that I can say I'm one of...
Now, let's really sing, you know.
One of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say I'm one of them, (Hallelujah.)
One of them, one of them,
I'm so glad that I can say I'm one of them.

L-177 Would you be willing to be a martyr for Him, of Smyrna? If it come to the spot that you had to face death or take it back, would you face it? Yes, sir. O God, it would be a pleasure. Yes. That's the way I want to go, right in the pulpit. That's right. I thought I got it and was going to get it in Germany here not long ago. Oh, they was going to shoot me through a night scope, and German soldiers run all around me and held back like that. I thought, "What a wonderful thing it would be to die for my Lord right here on the field." Oh, my. What a--what a wonderful thing.

L-178 Well, let me sing you a little song. Can I? Have you--have you got time for just a little hymn? All right. I can't sing it; I talk it. Oh, I've always wanted to sing. And some of these days when you get over to your lovely big home up there in paradise, way down at the end of the woods down there, where Russell Creech and I will be for this hunting, you know. Way down at the end of the woods there's a little cabin over there that Brother Neville sings about, "Build Me a Cabin in the Corner (I thought he was talking about my place.) in Gloryland." One of these mornings when you walk out on your great porch over there, and look around like that, way down there in the corner you hear somebody singing:
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
You say, "Well, bless God, old Brother Branham made it. There he is; I hear him standing over there right now, singing "Amazing Grace." It'll be amazing grace that brought me there. That's right.

L-180 But it's dripping with blood, yes, (That's why I'm preaching this.) it's dripping with blood,
This Holy Ghost Gospel is dripping with blood,
The blood of disciples who died for the truth,
This Holy Ghost Gospel keeps dripping with blood.
The first one to die for this Holy Ghost plan,
Was John the Baptist, but he died like a man;
Then came the Lord Jesus, they crucified Him,
He taught that the Spirit would save man from sin.
There was Peter and Paul, and John the Divine,
They gave up their lives so this Gospel could shine;
They mingled their blood, like the prophets of old,
So the true Word of God could honest be told.
There's souls under the altar, (these martyrs) crying, "How long?"
For the Lord to punish those who've done wrong; (Listen. Quickly.)
But there's going to be more who will give their life's blood
For this Holy Ghost Gospel and its crimson flood.
It's dripping with blood, yes, it's dripping with blood,
This Holy Ghost Gospel is dripping with blood,
The blood of disciples who died for the truth,
This Holy Ghost Gospel keeps dripping with blood.
