Author: James McGranahan, 1840-1907 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #455 (1970) First Line: Far, far away, in heathen darkness dwelling Refrain First Line: All power is given unto Me Lyrics: 1 Far, far away, in death and darkness dwelling,
Millions of souls forever may be lost;
Who, who will go, salvation’s story telling,
Looking to Jesus, ininding not the cost?
Chorus:
“All pow’r is given unto Me,
All pow’r is given unto Me,
Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel,
And lo, I am with you alway.”
2 See o’er the world wide open doors inviting -
Soldiers of Christ, arise and enter in!
Christians, awake! your forces all uniting,
Send forth the Gospel, break the chains of sin. [Chorus]
3 “Why will ye die?” the voice of God is calling;
“Why will you die?” re-echo in His name;
Jesus has died to save from death appalling,
Life and salvation, therefore, go proclaim. [Chorus]
4 God speed the day, when those of ev'ry nation
"Glory to God!" triumphantly shall sing;
Ransomed, redeemed, rejoicing in salvation,
Shout "Hallelujah, for the Lord is King!" [Chorus] Topics: Service; Soul Winning Languages: English Tune Title: [Far, far away, in heathen darkness dwelling]
Go Ye into All the World
