Lyics

GO, preach my gospel, saith the Lord,

Bid the whole earth my grace receive;

Proclaim to them my sacred word,

Bid them believe, obey and live.



I'll make your great commission known,

And you shall prove the tidings true:

By all the works which I have done-

By all the wonders you shall do.



Go, heal the sick, and raise the dead,

Go, cast out devils in my name;

Nor let my servants be afraid,

Though Greeks reproach and Jews blaspheme.



Teach all the nations my commands,

I'm with you till this age shall end;

All power is trusted to my hands,

I can destroy, and I defend.
