Text:Spreading the Message
Author:James Rowe
Tune:[Making the burdens of weary ones lighter]
Composer:W. A. Post

91. Spreading the Message

1 Making the burdens of weary ones lighter,
And pointing the lost ones to Jesus above,
Making the pathway of troubled hearts brighter,
We’re spreading the message of mercy and love.

Refrain:
Daily, hourly,
Spreading the message of mercy and love;
Gladly, freely,
Helping our Savior above.

2 Keeping the cross of our Master before us,
Reflecting the light of his glorified face,
Waving his standard unceasingly o’er us,
We’re telling the world of his soul-saving grace. [Refrain]

3 Foes may assail us and tempests may sweep us,
And billows roll over us day after day;
Sure that our Savior will guard us and keep us,
We’ll labor for him till he calls us away. [Refrain]
