Joy to the lands that in darkness have lain!

Hail to the millions from bondage returning! Gentiles and Jews the blest vision behold. 3 Lo, in the desert rich flowers are springing, Streams ever copious are gliding along; Loud from the mountaintops echoes are ringing, Wastes rise in verdure, and mingle in song. 4 See, from all lands, from the isles of the ocean, Praise to the Saviour ascending on high; Fallen the engines of war and commotion, Shouts of salvation are rending the sky.

Keep her faith in simple manhood Strong as when her life began, Till it find its full fruition In the brotherhood of man. Amen. Scripture: Deuteronomy 7:12-13 Tune Title: GENEVA

Fields are whit, and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and strong the Master calleth, Rich reward He offers thee; Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I; send me! send me"? 2 If you cannot 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 do for Jesus Will be precious in His sight. 3 If you cannot be a watchman Standing high on Zion's wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all, With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what heaven demands; You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet's hands. 4 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 am I; send me! send me." Scripture: Luke 10:2 Languages: English Tune Title: HARK THE VOICE
