578- So Send I You

Christian Life: Loving Service

1

So send I you-by grace made strong to triumph
O'er hosts of hell, o'er darkness, death, and sin,
My name to bear, and in that name to conquer-
So send I you, My victory to win.

2

So send I you-to take to souls in bondage
The word or truth that sets the captive free,
To break the bonds of sin, to loose death's fetters-
So send I you, to bring the lost to Me.

3

So send I you - My strength to know in weakness,
My joy in grief, My perfect peace in pain,
To prove My power, My grace, My promised presence-
So send I you, eternal fruit to gain.

4

So send I you-to bear My cross with patience,
And then one day with joy to lay it down,
To hear My voice, "Well done, My faithful servant-
Come, share My throne, My kingdom, and My crown!"
"As the Father hath sent Me, so send I you."
