Go, and the Saviour's grace proclaim,
Ye messengers of God;
Go, publish, thro' Immanuel's name,
Salvation bought with blood.
What tho' your arduous track may lie
Thro' regions dark as death;
What tho' your faith and zeal to try.
Perils beset your path:
Yet, with determin'd courage, go.
And, arm'd with pow'r divine.
Your God will needful aid bestow,
And on your labors shine.
He who has call'd you to the war
Will recompense your pains;
Before Messiah's conqu'ring car,
Mountains shall sink to plains.
Shrink not tho' earth and hell oppose.
But plead your Master's cause;
Nor doubt that e'en your mighy foes
Shall bow before his cross.
