Let Us Send the Gospel Message

Let us send the Gos­pel mes­sage

Far across the ocean wave

To the mill­ions who have nev­er

Heard of Je­sus’ pow­er to save;

To the peo­ple who are liv­ing

In a land of dark­est gloom

Where they have no thought of Heav­en

And no hope be­yond the tomb.

Let us send the mes­sage

blessèd Gos­pel mes­sage

That the na­tions may all hear of Je­sus’ name;

Let us send the mes­sage

bless­èd Gos­pel mes­sage

That the hea­then may be saved from sin and shame.

In our minds now

let us pic­ture

Such a pe­ople

such a land

And our­selves among the num­ber

With no sign of help­ing hand.

O the pain

the bit­ter sor­row

Of a life in such a place

Ne’er to feel the peace and com­fort

Of the Sav­ior’s par­don­ing grace!

Brethren

sist­ers

’tis our du­ty

And our pri­vi­lege as well

To this lost and dy­ing peo­ple

Of a Sav­ior’s love to tell.

Jesus said

Go teach all na­tions;

Dare we slight His last com­mand?

No

we’ll send the Gos­pel mes­sage

Into ev­ery hea­then land.
