|
<p>Speed away, speed away, on your mission of light,<br>
|
|
To the lands that are lying in darkness and night;<br>
|
|
’Tis the Master’s command; go ye forth in His Name,<br>
|
|
The wonderful Gospel of Jesus proclaim;<br>
|
|
Take your lives in your hand, to the work while ’tis day,<br>
|
|
Speed away, speed away, speed away.</p>
|
|
<p>Speed away, speed away with the life giving Word;<br>
|
|
To the nations that know not the voice of the Lord;<br>
|
|
Take the wings of the morning and fly o’er the wave,<br>
|
|
In the strength of your Master the lost ones to save;<br>
|
|
He is calling once more, not at moment’s delay,<br>
|
|
Speed away, speed away, speed away.</p>
|
|
<p>Speed away, speed away with the message of rest,<br>
|
|
To the souls by the tempter in bondage oppressed;<br>
|
|
For the Savior has purchased their ransom from sin,<br>
|
|
And the banquet is ready, O gather them in;<br>
|
|
To the rescue make haste, there’s no time for delay,<br>
|
|
Speed away, speed away, speed away.</p>
