Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light, the blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forevermore!

"Send the light! Send the light!"
And a golden off'ring at the cross we lay,
Send the light! Send the light! [Refrain]

Send the light! Send the light!
And a Christ-like spirit ev'rywhere be found,
Send the light! Send the light! [Refrain]

Send the light! Send the light!
Let us gather jewels for a crown above,
Send the light! Send the light! [Refrain] Topics: Missions Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a call comes ringing o'er the restless wave]
