16946. Send Out The Gospel

1 Go, la­bor for the Mas­ter in His field to­day,
The time for bless­ed serv­ice soon will pass away;
Press on and res­cue souls from Je­sus’ fold as­tray,
Send out the Gosp­el to each land!

Refrain:
Send out the Gos­pel, send out the Gos­pel,
Millions are lost in dark­est night;
Send out the Gos­pel, send out the Gos­pel;
Tell them of Christ, the on­ly light!

2 Oh, tell them of a Sav­ior and His death­less love,
How He des­cend­ed from His heav’nly home ab­ove
And died, the sins of ev­ery na­tion to r­emove—
Send out the Gos­pel to each land! [Refrain]

3 The won­drous bless­ings of sal­va­tion they should know;
Direct them to the Fount that wash­es white as snow;
Each soul who peni­tent in per­fect faith will go—
Send out the Gos­pel to each land! [Refrain]

4 Oh! let the joy­ful mes­sage ec­ho ’cross the sea,
Conveying hope and peace to those who would be free;
Teach them how to es­cape a dark eter­ni­ty—
Send out the Go­spel to each land! [Refrain]
