1 There’s a place just for you in the work of the Lord,
Do not longer your duty defy!
To the rescue of souls he is calling you now,
Will you answer him, “Lord, here am I?”

Refrain:
Will you answer him, “Lord, here am I?”
Will you now on the Saviour rely?
To the rescue of souls he is calling you now,
Will you answer him, “Lord, here am I?”

2 O how many are wand’ring from Jesus today,
Will you leave them in darkness to die?
Will you shine like a star o’er the dark night of sin?
Will you answer him, “Lord, here am I?” [Refrain]

3 There are souls who today may be looking to you
For the word that would point them on high,
To the call of the Lord do not fail to be true,
Will you answer him, “Lord, here am I?” [Refrain]
