to tell to all the world that God is light,
that he who made all nations is not willing
one life should perish, lost in shades of night.
Refrain:
Publish glad tidings, tidings of peace,
tidings of Jesus, redemption, and release.
2 Proclaim to ev'ry people, tongue, and nation
that God, in whom we live and move, is love;
tell how he stooped to save a lost creation,
and died on earth that we might live in love. [Refrain]
3 Give of your own to bear the message glorious;
give of your wealth to speed them on their way;
pour out your soul for them in prayer victorious,
till God shall bring his kingdom's joyful day. [Refrain] Topics: Spread of the Gospel; God--Grace and mercy of; Invitation and Response; Redemption of humankind; Salvation; Spread of the Gospel Used With Tune: ANGELIC SONGS (TIDINGS)
