  Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, with loving zeal, The poor and them that mourn, the faint and overborne, Sin sick and sorrow worn, whom Christ doth heal. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, with fervent prayer; The wayward and the lost, by restless passions tossed, Redeemed at countless cost, from dark despair. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, with one accord; With us the work to share, with us reproach to dare, With us the cross to bear, for Christ our Lord. Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring, with joyful song; The newborn souls, whose days, reclaimed from error’s ways, Inspired with hope and praise, to Christ belong.

Who is so low that I am not his brother? Who is so high that I’ve no path to him? Who is so poor, that I may not feel his hunger? Who is so rich I may not pity him? Who is so rich I may not pity him? Who is so hurt I may not know his heartache? Who sings for joy my heart may never share? Who in God’s heaven has passed beyond my vision? Who to Hell’s depths where I may never fare? Who to Hell’s depths where I may never fare? May none, then, call on me for understanding, May none, then, turn to me for help in pain, And drain alone his bitter cup of sorrow, Or find he knocks upon my heart in vain.

  And can it be that I should gain An interest in the Savior’s blood? Died He for me, who caused His pain— For me, who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be, That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me? Amazing love! How can it be, That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me? ’Tis mystery all: th’Immortal dies: Who can explore His strange design? In vain the firstborn seraph tries To sound the depths of love divine. ’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore, Let angel minds inquire no more. ’Tis mercy all! Let earth adore; Let angel minds inquire no more. He left His Father’s throne above So free, so infinite His grace— Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam’s helpless race: ’Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! ’Tis mercy all, immense and free, For O my God, it found out me! Long my imprisoned spirit lay, Fast bound in sin and nature’s night; Thine eye diffused a quickening ray— I woke, the dungeon flamed with light; My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed Thee. My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth, and followed Thee. Still the small inward voice I hear, That whispers all my sins forgiven; Still the atoning blood is near, That quenched the wrath of hostile Heaven. I feel the life His wounds impart; I feel the Savior in my heart. I feel the life His wounds impart; I feel the Savior in my heart. No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine; Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine, Bold I approach th’eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own. Bold I approach th’eternal throne, And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Oppressed by Satan’s slavish chains, In superstition’s woes and pains, While Christian hearts are dead, unheeding? Refrain Arise, O Church of God! Awake for Jesus’ sake! March on, march on, all hearts aflame, For Christ the world to take.

Refrain Oh, ye who serve the King of glory, In lands where heaven’s blessings glow, Can ye withhold salvation’s story, From myriads sunk in heathen woe? From myriads sunk in heathen woe?

While empires for the Gospel plead? Can men of soul, their God adoring, For heaven’s crowning glories hope? While millions in their blindness grope, And die, the light of life imploring?

• [Act 16:9] Over The Rolling Sea

  Over the rolling sea, Many the voices appealing to me; Groping in the darkness they, And to us for light they pray; O, their cry rings piteously O’er the waves of the deep, rolling sea. Over the rolling sea, Over the rolling sea! Refrain Over the sea, calling to me, There without Jesus the millions I see; Over the sea, pleading with me, Shall I not answer the pitiful plea? Over the rolling sea, Millions are perishing, Lord, without Thee; We are blessed with Gospel light, While they grope in heathen night, And we send not, O the shame! Help to them in the Savior’s dear Name, Over the rolling sea, Over the rolling sea! Refrain Over the rolling sea, There is a mission of mercy for me; Souls by years of sin depraved By my efforts may be saved, If I help to send the light To the people now shadowed in night Over the rolling sea, Over the rolling sea! Refrain

• [Act 16:9] Over There

  Over there where the heathen are dying, Over there where the sin forces dwell, We must carry the great salvation, We must go and the glad story tell. Refrain Over there where the millions are dying, over there, Over there where God’s thoughts are turning, over there; Over there darkened hearts are yearning, over there, We will pray for the souls over there. Over there where temptation is calling, Over there where the vices abound, We must tell of the One Who conquers, We must tell of the Christ we have found. Refrain Over there they are calling and dying, Over there in the darkness they roam, They are waiting to hear of Jesus, They are calling to us, “Won’t you come?” Refrain

• [Act 16:9] Through Midnight Gloom From Macedon

  Through midnight gloom from Macedon The cry of myriads as of one, The voiceful silence of despair, Is eloquent in awful prayer, The soul’s exceeding bitter cry, “Come o’er and help us, or we die.” How mournfully it echoes on! For half the earth is Macedon; These brethren to their brethren call, And by the Love which loved them all, And by the whole world’s Life they cry, “O ye that live, behold we die!” By other sounds the world is won Than that which wails from Macedon; The roar of gain is round it rolled, Or men unto themselves are sold, And cannot list the alien cry, “O hear and help us, lest we die!” Yet with that cry from Macedon The very car of Christ rolls on; “I come; who would abide My day In yonder wilds prepare My way; My voice is crying in their cry; Help ye the dying, lest ye die.” Jesu, for men of Man the Son, Yes, Thine the cry from Macedon; O by the kingdom and the power And glory of Thine advent hour, Wake heart and will to hear their cry; Help us to help them, lest we die!

• [Act 16:9] Thy Brother Calls To Thee

  Awake, O Christian, from thy sleep, And heed thy brother’s call! He cries to thee across the deep, Where darkest shadows falls. From sin and guilt and wretchedness He knows not where to flee; Go tell him how the Lord can bless! Thy brother calls to thee. ’Mid deepest gloom and darkest night He lifts his helpless hands; Can aught but Jesus give him light Or break his cruel bands? Then send, O send the Master’s Word Across the wide blue sea, Where Macedonia’s cry is heard! Thy brother calls to thee. O save the lost, the sinner turn! To blind men send the light! O let thy soul with ardor burn To lead them to the right; Then usher in that glorious day, The kingdom yet to be, When all shall own the Master’s sway! Thy brother calls to thee.

• [Act 16:30] What Shall I Do To Be Saved?

  O! what shall I do to be saved From the sorrows that burden my soul? Like the waves in the storm When the winds are at war, Chilling floods of distress o’er me roll. What shall I do? what shall I do? O! what shall I do to be saved? O! what shall I do to be saved When the pleasures of youth are all fled? And the friends I have loved, From the earth are removed And I weep o’er the graves of the dead? What shall I do? what shall I do? O! what shall I do to be saved? O! what shall I do to be saved When sickness my strength shall subdue? Or the world in a day, Like a cloud roll away, And eternity opens to view? What shall I do? what shall I do? O! what shall I do to be saved? O! Lord, look in mercy on me, Come, O come and speak peace to my soul: Unto whom shall I flee, Dearest Lord, but to Thee, Thou canst make my poor, broken heart whole. That will I do! that will I do! To Jesus I’ll go and be saved!

• [Act 16:31] Hallelujah! Jesus Saves Me

  Long mine eyes were drowned in tears, And my soul was filled with fears, And I heeded not the swiftly passing years; For thro’ many a weary day, O’er a long and desert way From the fold of Christ, my Shepherd, I did stray. Refrain Hallelujah! Jesus saves me, And my head is sweetly pillowed on His breast; Hallelujah, hallelujah! His shekinah covers me and I am blest. Now I doubt and fear no more, All my heart with bliss runs o’er, And I can but love Him, praise Him and adore; Skies above me never lower, Bright is every fleeting hour, And I sing the day of Jesus’ mighty power. Refrain O how precious is His grace! O to come to that fair place Where our souls may drink the light of His dear face! There before His shining seat All his sainted ones shall meet, Casting down their crowns before His piercèd feet. Refrain Will you join us, brother dear, While His voice of love and cheer Now is calling you—O hasten to His side; Every day you wait is lost, Sad will be the fearful cost, If you blindly spurn at last the Crucified.

  I know no life divided, O Lord of life, from Thee; In Thee is life provided For all mankind and me: I know no death, O Jesus, Because I live in Thee; Thy death it is which frees us From death eternally. I fear no tribulation, Since, whatsoe’er it be, It makes no separation Between my Lord and me.

If, while on earth I wander, My heart is light and blest, Ah, what shall I be yonder, In perfect peace and rest? O blessèd thought! in dying We go to meet the Lord, Where there shall be no sighing, A kingdom our reward.

  O God, in whom we live and move, Thy love is law, Thy law is love; Thy present Spirit waits to fill The soul which comes to do Thy will. Unto thy children’s spirits teach Thy love, beyond the powers of speech; And make them know, with joyful awe, The encircling presence of Thy law.

• [Act 26:14] I Hear A Voice That Comes From Far

  I hear a voice that comes from far; From Calvary it sounds abroad; It soothes my soul, and calms my fear; It speaks of pardon bought with blood. And is it true, that many fly The sound that bids my soul rejoice; And rather choose in sin to die, Than turn an ear to mercy’s voice! Alas for those! The day is near, When mercy will be heard no more; Then will they ask in vain to hear The voice they would not hear before. With such, I own, I once appeared, But now I know how great their loss; For sweeter sounds were never heard Than mercy utters from the cross. But let me not forget to own, That if I differ aught from those, ’Tis due to sovereign grace alone, That oft selects its proudest foes.

Because I held upon my selfish road, And left my brother wounded by the way, And called ambition duty, and pressed on, O Lord, I do repent. Because I spent the strength Thou gavest me In struggle which Thou never didst ordain, And have imperfect life to offer Thee, O Lord, I do repent. Because I was impatient, would not wait, And thrust my willful hand across Thy threads, And marred the pattern drawn out for my life, O Lord, I do repent.
