Light and Life ‎#88

88. Who will go?

1 Hark! the voice of Jesus, crying,
Who will go and work today?
Fields are white and harvest waiting,
Who will bear the sheaves away.
Loud and long the Master calleth,
Rich rewards he offers free,
Who will answer, gladly saying,
"Here am I, send me, send me."

Chorus:
Hark! the voice of Jesus, crying,
Who will go and work today?
Fields are white and harvest waiting,
Who will bear the sheaves away.

2 If you can not cross the ocean,
And the heathen lands explore,
You can find the heathen nearer,
You can help them at your door.
If you cannot give your thousands,
You can give the widow's mite,
And the least you give for Jesus,
Will be precious in his sight. [Chorus]

3 Let none bear you idly saying,
"There is nothing I can do,
"While the souls of men are dying,
And the Master calls for you.
Take the task he gives you gladly,
Let his words your pleasures be,
Answer quickly when he calleth,
"Here am I, send me, send me." [Chorus]
