143. Some One Has Failed Thee

1 Light has been given,
Light from above,
Light for all nations,
Pardon and love;
Africa’s millions,
Sin-blinded, die;
Some one has failed Thee;
Lord, is it I?

Refrain:
Lord, is it I?
Lord, is it I?
Some one has failed Thee,
Lord, is it I?
Lord, is it I?
Lord, is it I?
Someone has failed Thee;
Lord, is it I?

2 Life has been given,
Life for the lost,
Life through a Saviour!
Crimson the cost!
India’s millions,
Sin-stricken, die!
Some one has failed Thee;
Lord, is it I? [Refrain]

3 O, canst thou answer,
Christian, tonight,
“I have been faithful,
Lord, in Thy sight?”
For China’s millions,
Sin-sentenced, die!
Some one has failed Thee;
Lord, is it I? [Refrain]
