1 Dear Lord, I own that I am weak,
From sin I ne’er am free;
But when Thou hast lost lambs to seek,
I pray Thee, Lord, send me.

Refrain:
Lord, send me; Lord, send me;
O touch my tongue with fire divine;
Lord, send me.

2 In earthen vessels shall Thy name
Be carried to the lost;
Then let me go, I pray, dear Lord,
I will not count the cost. [Refrain]

3 Before me are the shadows deep,
The valley and the gloom,
But even there the Lord will keep
And lead me safely home. [Refrain]
