|
|
<p>Go, ye messengers of God!<br>
|
|
Like the beams of morning fly,<br>
|
|
Take the wonder working rod,<br>
|
|
Wave the banner cross on high;<br>
|
|
Where the lofty minaret<br>
|
|
Gleams along the morning skies,<br>
|
|
Wave it till the crescent set,<br>
|
|
And the Star of Jacob rise!</p>
|
|
<p>Go to many a tropic isle<br>
|
|
In the bosom of the deep,<br>
|
|
Where the skies forever smile<br>
|
|
And the oppressed forever weep:<br>
|
|
O’er their gloomy night of care<br>
|
|
Pour the living light of heaven;<br>
|
|
Chase away their dark despair,<br>
|
|
Bid them hope to be forgiven!</p>
|
|
<p>Where the golden gates of day<br>
|
|
Open on the palmy East,<br>
|
|
Wide the bleeding cross display,<br>
|
|
Spread the Gospel’s richest feast:<br>
|
|
Bear the tidings round the ball,<br>
|
|
Visit every soil and sea:<br>
|
|
Preach the cross of Christ to all,<br>
|
|
Jesus’ love is full and free!</p>
