Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.1090
First Line: Far, far away in heathen darkness dwelling,
Far, far away in heathen darkness dwelling,
Millions of souls for ever may be lost ;
Who, who will go Salvation's story telling —
Looking to Jesus, counting not the cost ?
All power is given unto Me ! All power is
given unto Me ! Go ye into all the world and
preach the Gospel ; and lo, I am with you alway.
2 See o'er the world wide open doors inviting :
Soldiers of Christ, arise and enter in !
Christians, awake ! your forces all uniting,
Send forth the gospel, break the chains of sin !
3 Why will ye die ? the voice of God is calling ;
Why will ye die ? re-echo in His Name :
Jesus hath died to save from death appalling ;
Life and salvation therefore go proclaim.
4 God speed the day when those of every nation,
Glory to God triumphantly shall sing ;
Ransomed, redeemed, rejoicing in salvation,
Shout Hallelujah, for the Lord is King !
