128. Out in the World

1 Out in the wide world, out in its strife,
Out in the whirl of its busy life,
Take this old story, God’s loving call,
Wonderful gospel! Christ died for all.

Refrain:
Souls are perishing out in the world,
There let the banner of Christ be unfurled,
Over the waters and here at home,
Tell them of Jesus, O bid them come.

2 Out in the wide world, out in its night,
Carry the Bible, the book of light;
Give them the sunshine, light from above,
Take the good tidings, a Savior’s love. [Refrain]

3 Out in the wide world go in his might,
Go with your armor on, strong and bright,
Follow the Master where’er you may,
Filled with his Spirit, O work and pray. [Refrain]
