Missionary Songs
1-Send the Light
There’s a call comes ringing o’er the restless waves,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save,
Send the light! Send the light!
Chorus
Send the light! The blessed gospel light;
Let it shine from shore to shore!
Send the light! The blessed gospel light;
Let it shine forever more.
We have heard the Macedonian call today,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
And a golden off’ring at the cross we lay,
Send the light! Send the light!
Let us pray that grace may everywhere abound,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
And a Christ-like spirit everywhere be found,
Send the light! Send the light!”
Let us not grow weary in the work of love,
“Send the light! Send the light!”
Let us gather jewels for a crown above,
Send the light! Send the light!
2-Souls For Jesus
Souls for Jesus,
is our battle cry
Souls for Jesus,
we’ll fight until we die!
We never will give in,
While souls are lost in sin!
Souls for Jesus,
is our battle cry!
3-Jesus Loves the Little Children
Jesus loves the little children
All the children of the Lord
Red and Yellow Black and White
They are precious in His sight
Jesus loves the little children of the world! Jesus died…
Jesus rose…
Jesus comes…
3-Away in Heathen Darkness
Away in heathen darkness drear, Lost souls are born and die in fear.
They grope to find the light of life, To end their misery and strife.
Oh you who know the way to God, Won’t you to them the Gospel bring?
Haste then e’er more shall die in sin, And tell of Jesus death for them.
Today some heathen mother dear, Is turning from a sacred stream.
To which she threw her precious child, An offering to please her god.
Oh you who know the One true God, What offering did you bring today?
You claim to have the peace of God, Yet care not they must seek in vain.
Some-where a man is passing on. His life and breath are almost gone.
His way is dark we know full well, But no one goes of Christ to tell.
In misery he cries in vain, Knows not that Jesus died for him.
And in a Christ-less grave he’s laid, Forgotten, lost and doomed for hell.
Oh Christian friend they’re dying now, A hundred thousand souls today.
How shall we face our blessed Lord, If any longer we delay?
Oh you who know the way to God, Won’t you to them the Gospel bring?
Haste then e’er more shall die in sin, And tell of Jesus’ death for them.
4-I Gave My Life for Thee
I gave my life for thee, My precious blood I shed,
That thou might’st ransomed be, And quickened from the dead;
I gave, I gave My life for thee, What hast thou giv’n for me?
I gave, I gave My life for thee, What hast thou giv’n for me?
My Father’s house of light, My glory circled throne,
I left for earthly night, For wanderings sad and lone;
I left, I left it all for thee, Hast thou left aught for Me?
I left, I left it all for thee, Hast thou left aught for Me?
I suffer’d much for thee, More than thy tongue can tell,
Of bitt’rest agony, To rescue thee from hell;
I’ve borne, I ‘ve borne it all for thee, What has thou borne for Me?
I’ve borne, I ‘ve borne it all for thee, What hast thou borne for Me?
And I have brought to thee, Down from My home above,
Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love;
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, What hast thou brought for Me?
I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, What hast thou brought for Me?
5-Be A Missionary Every Day!
Be a missionary every day! (clap)
Tell the world that Jesus is the way!
Be it in the town or country
or the busy avenue!
Africa or Asia, the task is up to YOU!
So, Be a missionary every day! (clap)
Tell the world that Jesus is the way!
The Lord is soon returning
There is no time to loose, so
Be a missionary
God’s own emissary
Be a missionary to day!
Let’s GO!!!
6-Rescue the Perishing
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying,
Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;
Weep o’er the erring one, Lift up the fallen,
Tell them of Jesus the mighty to save.
Chorus
Rescue the perishing,
Care for the dying;
Jesus is merciful,
Jesus with save.
Tho’ they are slighting Him, Still He is waiting,
Waiting the penitent child to receive;
Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently,
He will forgive if they only believe.
Down in the human heart, Crush’d by the tempter,
Feelings lie buried that grace can restore;
Touch’d by a loving heart, Waken’d by kindness,
Chords that are broken will vibrate once more.
Rescue the perishing, Duty demands it;
Strength for their labor the Lord will provide;
Back to the narrow way Patiently win them;
Tell the poor wand’rer a Saviour had died.
7-Stop! And Let Me Tell You!
Stop! And let me tell you
what the Lord has done for me!
Stop! And let me tell you
what the Lord has done for me!
He forgave my sins
and He saved my soul!
He cleansed my heart
and He made me whole, so...
Stop! And let me tell you
what the Lord has done for me!
Go! And tell the story
of the Christ of Calvary!
Go! And tell the story
of the Christ of Calvary!
He’ll forgive their sins
and He’ll save their souls!
He’ll cleanse their hearts
and He’ll make them whole, so...
Go! And tell the story
of the Christ of Calvary!
8-Oh, Lord My God
Tune: How Great Thou Art
Oh, Lord my God, I think of millions dying
Without a ray of hope or Gospel light.
I come to give my life, forever trying
To bring them from the curse of endless night.
Chorus:
My heart cries out, my Saviour, God to Thee,
Oh, let me go, that they might know.
My heart cries out, my Saviour, God to Thee,
Oh, let me go, that they might know.
Oh, Lord my God, when I consider Jesus,
And all the grief and sacrifice He bore,
And how He breaks our chains of sin and frees us,
From Satan’s bonds, it stirs me to the core.
9-I’ll Say yes
(Chorus)
I’ll say yes Lord yes
To your will and to your way
I’ll say Yes, Lord Yes
I will trust you and obey
When your Spirit speaks to me
With my whole heart I’ll agree
And my answer will be Yes, Lord Yes
Lord I give you all the glory
for all you’ve given me
You have filled my life until I overflow
All I have is yours to use
in any way you choose
You are Lord of all
So how can I say no
(To Chorus)
If I never knew the fullness
Of living in your will
I would never know
how rich my life could be
Lord my willingness to serve
Is the least you deserve
For the blessings you have showered over me!
So... (To Chorus twice through)
10-This Little Light of Mine!
This little Light of mine, I’m going to let it shine!
This little Light of mine, I’m going to let it shine!
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine!
I won’t let Satan blow it out!
I’m going to let it shine!
Hide it under a bushel - NO!
I’m going to let it shine!
Shine my Light till Jesus comes!
I’m going to let it shine!
11-Untold Millions
Chorus
Untold millions are still untold,
Untold millions are outside the fold
Who will tell them of Jesus' love,
and of heavenly mansions awaiting above!
Jesus died, on Calvary,
to cleanse each one from sin,
Now He calls to YOU and me,
to GO and bring them in
for many... (back to the Chorus)
12-I’ll Give Myself
Tune: Amazing Grace
Amazing grace how sweet the sound,
To those who know the Lord,
But what of those who still are bound,
And do not have His Word.
The many dangers, toils, and snares,
Through which we daily go,
Are nothing much when they compare
With what the heathen know.
Ten thousand years to sing His praise,
Bright shining as the sun,
While lost men suffer endless days,
Their torment never done.
Since grace has meant so much to me,
What would it mean to them?
I’ll give myself, oh, Lord, to Thee,
To bring Thy grace to them.
