God speed the right; Or, Missionary Hymn

Author: Fanny Church Hymnal: The Little Sower for Sabbath Schools #127 (1870) First Line: Far o'er the sea are heathen lands Refrain First Line: God speed the right Lyrics: 1 Far o'er the sea are heathen lands; No Saviour there they know; The truth is hidden from their sight, How long must this be so. Chorus: God speed the right, O send them light, Till all who live beyond the sea, Shall unto Jesus bow the knee. 2 Their gods are made of wood and stone; These cannot hear them pray; These cannot comfort in distress, Nor take their sins away. [Chorus] 3 Our hands must work, our hearts must pray, And thus the gospel send, To teach them of the way to Heav'n, Of Christ the sinner's friend. [Chorus] Tune Title: [Far o'er the sea are heathen lands]
