146. Send Out Thy Light

1 Send out thy light, let it shine far and near;
Send out thy light, send out thy light!
Send out thy light, Christ’s beloved to cheer,
Send out thy light!
Send out thy light!
Brightly illumine all the pathway along,
Shed beams of sunshine on the right and the wrong;
Comfort the weary with light and with song,
Send out the light!

Refrain:
Oh, send out thy light!
Let it shine far and near,
Christ’s beloved to cheer,
Oh, send out thy light,
Let it shine, let it shine far and near.

2 March ever onward and sing as you go;
Send out thy light, send out thy light!
Striving all errors and sin to o’erthrow,
Send out thy light!
Send out thy light!
Bring to the weary-hearted faith, hope and love;
Point out to suf’ring ones thy Savior above;
Tell of the Spirit, the pure Heavenly Dove;
Send out thy light! [Refrain]

3 Let all the world see thy light brightly shine;
Send out thy light, send out thy light!
Keep ever near to the great Light divine,
Send out thy light!
Send out thy light!
Help to the needy wilt thou bring day by day,
Some soul will bless thee for the light by the way;
Cling to the promise, and work, watch and pray;
Send out thy light! [Refrain]
