Preach the Gospel

Preach the Gos­pel

sound it forth

Tell of free and full sal­va­tion;

Spread the tid­ings o’er the earth

Go to ev­ery tribe and na­tion.

Spread the joy­ful tid­ings

In an­them and sto­ry

Jesus hath re­deemed us

Oh

give Him the glo­ry!

Preach the Gos­pel

full of joy

While on grace and mer­cy dwell­ing;

Heart and soul in full em­ploy

As the story you are tell­ing.

Preach the Gos­pel

make it clear

By the blood of Christ re­mis­sion;

Give the mes­sage

make them hear

This alone is our com­mis­sion.

Preach the Gos­pel full of love

Christ’s com­pas­sion ful­ly know­ing;

Seek the pow­er from ab­ove

While His great com­pas­sion show­ing.

Preach the Gos­pel as if God

Sinners lost through you were seek­ing;

His sal­va­tion through the Word

Speak as if the Lord were speak­ing.
