Send the Light, oh, send it quickly
Far across the heaving main;
Speed the news of full salvation,
Thro’ a dear Redeemer’s Name.
Send the Light, oh, send it quickly
To the isles beyond the sea;
Let them hear the wondrous story—
Love is boundless, grace is free!
Send the Light,
where souls are dying
In their darkness,
gloom, and night;
Haste, oh haste!
the days are fleeting,
And the hours—
how swift their flight.
Send the Light, oh, send it quickly
To the isles beyond the sea;
Let them hear the wondrous story—
Love is boundless, grace is free!
Send the Light—
the Lord commands it!
To His Holy Word attend:
“Go ye forth and
preach My Gospel;
Lo! I’m with you to the end.”
Send the Light, oh, send it quickly
To the isles beyond the sea;
Let them hear the wondrous story—
Love is boundless, grace is free!
