Hark! The Voice of Jesus Calling

Author: Daniel March Appears in 507 hymnals Topics: Jesus' Call First Line: Hark, the voice of Jesus calling Lyrics: 1 Hark! The voice of Jesus calling, "Who will go and work today? Fields are white, the harvest waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Earnestly the Master calleth, Rich reward he offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I, O Lord, send me." 2 If you cannot cross the ocean, And far mission lands explore, You can find the needy nearer, You can help them at your door; If you cannot give your thousands, You can serve with willing might; And whate'er you do for Jesus, Will be precious in his sight. 3 Let none hear 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 work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, "Here I am, O Lord, send me."

Fears and doubts too long have bound us; free our hearts to work and praise. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days, for the living of these days. 3 Cure thy children's warring madness, bend our pride to thy control; shame our wanton, selfish gladness, rich in things and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, lest we miss thy kingdom's goal, lest we miss thy kingdom's goal. 4 Save us from weak resignation to the evils we deplore; let the search for thy salvation be our glory evermore.
