Ye Heralds of Jesus

Ye her­alds of Je­sus

go forth with the light

And scat­ter its glad beams abroad;

’Twill glad­den the na­tions like songs in the night

And win pre­cious souls for your Lord.

Go forth with the light

go forth with the light!

Go

scat­ter the beams o’er the dark ocean wave

And point them to Je­sus

the migh­ty to save.

’Tis thine

O be­lov­èd

re­deemed by the blood

Salvation’s good news to im­part

Today to thy bro­ther

who sinks ’neath his load

With glad­ness to fill the sad heart.

Commissioned of Je­sus

the lost ones to win

Go

reach out a glad help­ing hand;

In migh­ty bat­tal­ions they’re sink­ing in sin

Those you might bring safe­ly to land.

In ci­ty or vil­lage

wher­ev­er they be

Go thou with the life-giv­ing Word;

Quit not

till all peo­ple

from sea un­to sea

The old Gos­pel sto­ry have heard.
