113. The Call

1 A call rings out to all,
Who will go?
Who will go?
It comes from over many seas
And whispers from the trees.

Refrain:
Go ye into all the world,
Preach the gospel to mankind;
Carry life and light and hope
To the lame, the halt and blind;
The trumpet call rings clear,
Yet few there be who make reply!
Awake, arise and dare
To answer, “Master, here am I!”

2 It pleads for noble deeds!
Who will go?
Who will go?
Oh, send the everlasting light
To drive away our night. [Refrain]

3 Behold the scattered fold!
Who will go?
Who will go?
Then hasten to the fields of sin
And bring the wand’rers in! [Refrain]
