“Missionary Gems” — A collection of short poems
Compiled from various sources — Gospel Trumpet Company
There are millions in darkness in lands far away,
Who are wand’ring in sin and are going astray;
Who will take them the light of the gospel today?
Go out quickly and bid them come in.
Our Redeemer and Savior came down from the sky;
He did suffer, did bleed, did ascend up on high,
And he bids us to carry the light ere they die.
Go out quickly and bid them come in.
When we think of the suffering, the sin, and the woe,
We should take them the light that will blessings bestow;
We should haste and obey his command that says, “Go.”
We should hasten and bid them come in.
They are dying by thousands each day and each night,
And are passing away ere they have gospel light
Which dispels all the darkness and makes the way bright ;
Who will take them the light of God’s Word?
They are anxiously waiting to hear the glad news,
Of a full, free salvation for those who will choose
To forsake all their sins, and the devil refuse;
Who will take them the tidings of love?
