Hymn 455 SEND THE LIGHT Lyrics

1. There’s a call comes ringing o’er the restless wave,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save,

Chorus:
Send the light! Send the light!
We will spread the everlasting light
With a willing heart and hand,
Giving God the glory evermore;
We will follow His command.
Send the light, The blessed gospel light,
Let it shine from shore to Shore!
Send the light! And let its radiant beams
Light the world forevermore.

2. We have heard the Macedonian call today,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
And a golden offering at the cross we lay.

3. Let us pray that grace may ev’ry where abound,
Send he light! Send the light!
And a Christ-like spirit ev’ry where be found.

4. Let us not grow weary in the work of love,
Send the light! Send the light!
Let us gather jewels for a crown above.
