Three brothers in a fire
Willing to die for their faith
But You were with them in the fire
And they walked out the next day
And Daniel met a lion
Because he chose to pray
But You shut the mouth of that lion
And he walked out the next day
So, what's gonna be said of me
When it's all said and done?
Will I stand for my beliefs
Or will I turn around and run?
Well, let the whole world hear me say
I'm unashamed
Of the gospel of Jesus Christ
And the truth that changed my life
For the name above all names
I'm unashamed
And I will live my faith out loud
Take a stand and stand my ground
For the One who took my shame
I'm unashamed
I don't answer to the crowd
I answer to a King
So the louder they shout
Oh, the louder I sing, yeah
What's gonna be said of me
When it's all said and done?
Will I stand for my beliefs
Or will I turn around and run?
Let the whole world hear me say
I'm unashamed
Of the gospel of Jesus Christ
And the truth that changed my life
For the name above all names
I'm unashamed
And I will live my faith out loud
Take a stand and stand my ground
For the One who took my shame
I'm unashamed
At the name of Jesus
Every knee will bow
And every tongue confess
So let it start right now
Before you come back, Lord
Before the rocks cry out
I will lift my praise
Let it start right now
I'm unashamed
Of the gospel of Jesus Christ
And the truth that changed my life
For the name above all names
I'm unashamed, yeah
And I will live my faith out loud
Take a stand and stand my ground
For the One who took my shame
I'm unashamed
(I'm unashamed)
Oh, I'm unashamed (I'm unashamed)
I want the world to hear me say
I'm unashamed
(I'm unashamed)
Oh, I'm unashamed
For the One who took my shame
I'm unashamed
Lord, I will stand for You
I'll tell the world about You, yeah
I'm unashamed
Unashamed Video (MV)
"Unashamed" by Matthew West is a powerful anthem that expresses a deep commitment to faith and the bold declaration of one's beliefs. At its core, the song encourages listeners to stand firm in their conviction and share their faith openly, regardless of societal pressures. The song emphasizes the transformative power of belief in Jesus Christ, highlighting how this faith shapes one's identity and actions. West uses scriptural references to illustrate the idea that true courage comes from standing firm in one's beliefs, even in the face of adversity.
The first verse includes references to the biblical accounts of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who defied a king's decree and were thrown into a fiery furnace, and Daniel, who was thrown into a den of lions for praying. These narratives serve as metaphors for perseverance and divine protection. West effectively illustrates that just as these Biblical figures overcame peril with their faith, so too can individuals today find strength in their beliefs. The pre-chorus questions personal legacy, prompting introspection about one's response to challenges. This idea resonates across cultures, especially in environments where faith can lead to ridicule or opposition, making the message relatable to anyone grappling with the decision to remain steadfast.
