The Gospel Song Sheaf ‎#168

168. "Here Am I, Send Me"

1. Hear the voice of loving Duty
Calling thee, calling thee;
There is work to do for Jesus,
Here and o'er the sea.

Chorus:
[soprano/alto] Here am I, send me, I would toil for thee;
I have heard thy call, and with joy reply,
"Dear Saviour, here am I."
[tenor/bass] Here am I, O Lord, I know thy voice,
Here am I, O Lord, thou art my choice;
I have heard thy call.

2. Shall the Master ask unheeded,
"Who will go? Who will go?"
When the Bread of Life is needed
Ev'rywhere below? (Chorus)

3. Living coals from God's own altar,
Touch our lips, purge our sin;
Love divine, the lost ones seeking,
Make thy home within. (Chorus)
