Author: B. H. Pearson Hymnal: Light and Life Songs No. 4 #77 (1928) First Line: Hear ye the great command Refrain First Line: Go ye! the hour is late Lyrics: 1 Hear ye the great command,
Go ye, O go ye!
How can ye idle stand?
God calls you on.
Unto the great and small,
Clear doth it ring for all;
Christian, O heed the call,
His voice obey.
Chorus:
Go ye! the hour is late;
Go ye! why hesitate?
Go ye! in Jesus’ name,
To all the world.
2 souls now are sinking fast,
Go ye, O go ye!
Soon will the day be past,
Go ye, yes, go!
Millions in heathen night,
Pleading for gospel light,
Ask us in Jesus’ might,
To go today. [Chorus]
3 Clearly the word doth ring,
Go ye, O go ye!
‘Tis not enough to sing,
Go in His name!
Jesus now pleads with thee,
he will thy leader be,
Forward to victory!
Go ye today! [Chorus]
4 At last the victor’s song,
Go ye, O go ye!
In yonder blood-washed throng,
Go ye, yes, go!
Will ye be greeted there
By souls in whom ye share,
Shining as stars most fair,
Through endless day? [Chorus]
