’Twas Jesu’s last and great command—
“Go, preach my word in ev’ry land;
To all be my salvation shown,
To ev’ry creature make it known.”
“While thus employ'd, expect my grace
Attending you from place to place;
Where’er you meet, expect me there—
In church, or house, or open air.”
Commissioned thus, we come abroad,
To preach the gospel of our God:
The love of God in Christ to tell!
The love that saves from sin and hell.
Jesus, our Lord! thy word fulfil—
Thy Spirit’s pow’r be with us still:
May all our souls thy blessing share—
Accept our praise, and hear our pray’r.
