Send Me

O’er the mount­ain

thro’ the val­ley

Or e’en where the dark wa­ters flow;

Into crowd­ed street or al­ley

Should my Sav­ior call me

I’ll go.

He found me lost and for­sak­en;

My heart from sin He made free;

And now

with cour­age un­shak­en

I an­swer

Here

Lord

send me.

Send me

O Lord

on a mis­sion!

Whenever

wher­ev­er it be

In will­ing and loy­al sub­miss­ion

I’ll an­swer

Here

Lord

send me.

To the dwell­ings of the low­ly

Or man­sions all state­ly and grand

With the mes­sage pure and ho­ly

I will go at my Lord’s com­mand.

No mat­ter where I am need­ed

At home

or ov­er the sea

His call will ev­er be heed­ed

I’ll an­swer

Here

Lord

send me.

O if I can on­ly light­en

The bur­den of some­one op­pressed;

Or by deeds of kind­ness bright­en

For a mo­ment some life dis­tressed

I’ll glad­ly work in God’s vine­yard

His hum­ble serv­ant will be;

And when He call­eth for la­bor­ers

I’ll an­swer

Here

Lord

send me.
