Refrain: I’ll go where You want me to go, dear Lord, O'er mountain or plain or sea; I’ll say what You want me to say, dear Lord. I’ll be what You want me to be. 2 Perhaps today there are loving words Which Jesus would have me speak, There may be now, in the paths of sin, Some wand’rer whom I should seek; O Savior, if Thou wilt be my Guide, Tho dark and rugged the way, My voice shall echo the message sweet, I’ll say what you want me to say. [Refrain] 3 There’s surely somewhere a lowly place In earth’s harvest fields so wide, Where I may labor thru life’s short day For Jesus the Crucified; So, trusting my all unto Thy care - I know Thou lovest me - I’ll do Thy will with a heart sincere, I’ll be what You want me to be. [Refrain] Used With Tune: I'LL GO

At even, ere the sun was set

Author: H. Twells Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 323 hymnals Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: 1 At even, ere the sun was set, The sick, O Lord, around Thee lay; Oh, in what divers pains they met! Oh, with what joy they went away! 2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we Oppressed with various ills draw near; What if Thy form we cannot see? We know and feel that Thou art here. 3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel; For some are sick, and some are sad, And some have never loved Thee well, And some have lost the love they had, 4 And some have found the world is vain, Yet from the world they break not free, And some have friends that give them pain, Yet have not sought a friend in Thee. 5 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest, For none are wholly free from sin; And they who fain would love Thee best Are conscious most of wrong within. 6 O Saviour Christ, Thou too art Man; Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried; Thy kind, but searching glance can scan The very wounds that shame would hide. 7 Thy touch has still its ancient power; No word from Thee can fruitless fall; Hear, in this solemn evening hour And in Thy mercy heal us all. Amen. Used With Tune: ANGELUS

With broken heart and contrite sigh

Author: Cornelius Elven Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 223 hymnals Topics: Parochial Missions Lyrics: With broken heart and contrite sigh, A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry: Thy pardoning grace is rich and free: O God, be merciful to me. I smite upon my troubled breast, With deep and conscious guilt oppressed; Christ and his cross my only plea: O God, be merciful to me. Far off I stand with tearful eyes, Nor dare uplift them to the skies; But thou dost all my anguish see: O God, be merciful to me. Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done, Can for a single sin atone; To Calvary alone I flee: O God, be merciful to me. And when, redeemed from sin and hell, With all the ransomed throng I dwell, My raptured song shall ever be, God has been merciful to me. Amen. Used With Tune: EISENACH
