1 Once I was a wand’rer, lost and full of sin;
Now I know how Christ a soul can win!
Come, oh come to Jesus, seek His grace today;
None that seek Him will He turn away.
Refrain:
"Glory in the highest!" angels sing.
"Praise Him! Praise Him!" echoes ring.
Give to God the glory for His Son, our Lord!
Shout aloud His praise with full accord;
Shout aloud, "Hosanna! praise the Lord!"
2 Give, oh give to Jesus praises, while we sing;
Onward send the tidings, Christ is King!
See the world awaking, praising God above—
God who sends salvation, rich in love. [Refrain]
3 We will tell the story, off’ring life to all,
All who take the coss and hear His call;
Thus we’ll pray and labor for the lost by sin,
Till the wand’rers all are gthered in. [Refrain]
4 Come and join the army, battle for the right;
Life is passing—onward! work with might!
Work! the time is precious, laborers are few,
And the Lord and Master calleth you. [Refrain]
