<p>Lord, Thou hast gone two thousand years,<br>
Yet they have never heard<br>
Tidings of Thy redeeming love,<br>
Or seen Thy holy Word.<br>
Sleeping and still Thy Church has lain,<br>
Heedless of the high command&#8212;<br>
&#8220;Go forth to ev&#8217;ry tribe and tongue,<br>
To ev&#8217;ry distant land.&#8221;</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Send them, O Lord, to speak of Thee,<br>
Telling of Thy love and grace;<br>
Send them, O Lord, to tell of Thee,<br>
To ev&#8217;ry tribe and race.</p>
<p>Once o&#8217;er this bright and favored land<br>
Lay there the pall of night&#8212;<br>
Gloom of a savage heathendom,<br>
With foul and bloody rite.<br>
Brave ones arose and came to us,<br>
Bringing o&#8217;er the tidings sweet,<br>
Then cruel men bent low to Thee,<br>
And worshipped at Thy feet.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>So would we do for other lands<br>
Lying in deepest death,<br>
Sinking to meet their awful doom<br>
With ev&#8217;ry passing breath.<br>
Hear, Jesus, hear our fervent pray&#8217;r,<br>
Wake Thy sleeping Church to know<br>
Her hour of privilege and pow&#8217;r,<br>
And bid her rise and go.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
