Lyics

"Go preach my gospel."  Saith the Lord,

"Bid the whole earth my grace receive;

"He shall be saved that trusts my word,

"He shall be damn'd that won't believe.



"I'll make your great commission known;

"And ye shall prove my gospel true,

"By all the works that I have done,

"By all the wonders ye shall do.





"Go heal the sick, go raise the dead,

"Go cast out devils in my name;

"Nor let my prophets be afraid,

"Tho Greeks reproach & Jews blaspheme.



"Teach all the nations my commands;

"I'm with you 'till the world shall end;

"All power is trusted in my hands,

"I can destroy, and I defend."



He spake, and light shone round his head;

On a bright cloud to heav'n he rode:

They to the farthest nation spread

The grace of their ascended Lord.
