|
|
| 1. | Send Thou, O Lord, to every place |
| | Swift messengers before Thy face, |
| | The heralds of Thy wondrous grace, |
| | Where Thou Thyself wilt come. |
| 2. | Send men whose eyes have seen the |
| | King! |
| | Men in whose eyes His sweet words |
| | ring; |
| | Send such Thy lost ones home to bring; |
| | Send them where Thou wilt come. |
| 3. | To bring good news to souls in sin; |
| | The bruised and broken hearts to win; |
| | In every place to bring them in, |
| | Where Thou Thyself wilt come. |
| 4. | Gird each one with the Spirit's sword, |
| | The sword of Thine own deathless |
| | word; |
| | And make them conquerors, |
| | conquering Lord, |
| | Where Thou Thyself wilt come. |
| 5. | Raise up, O Lord the Holy Ghost, |
| | >From this broad land a mighty host, |
| | Their war-cry, We will seek the lost, |
| | Where Thou, O Christ, wilt come! |
