9. Send the Message Back to Glory

1 Send the message back to glory,
Precious souls for Christ are won;
Angels bright repeat the story
Of what grace divine has done.

Refrain:
Send the message back to glory!
Send the message back to glory!
Let its courts resound,
For another soul is found!
Send the message back to glory!

2 Thro’ celestial courts resounding,
Let the music louder swell;
As of mercy free abounding
Newly pardoned sinners tell. [Refrain]

3 Send the message sweet and holy,
To the blest around the throne;
Hardened hearts, now weak and lowly,
Have a change most wondrous known. [Refrain]

4 Send the message back to heaven,
Strife with unbelief is o’er,
And repentant souls, forgiven,
Trust in Jesus evermore. [Refrain]
