Send the Light, oh, send it quickly Far across the heaving main ; Speed the news of full salvation Through a dear Redeemer's name. Send the Light, oh, send it quickly
To the isles beyond the sea ; Let them hear the wondrous story â Love is boundless, grace is free !
2. Send the Light, where souls are dying In their darkness, gloom, and night ; Haste, oh, haste ! the days are fleeting. And the hours â how swift their flight!
3. Send the Lightâ the Lord commands it ; To His Holy Word attend : " Go ye forth and preach My gospel ; Lo ! I'm with you to the end."
