Take the World for Jesus

Take the world for Je­sus

Sound the great bat­tle cry

Let the migh­ty chor­us ring;

Take the world for Je­sus

Raise the bright stan­dard high

As we shout

as we march

as we sing.

Let the Gos­pel sto­ry roll around the world

Everywhere let joy pr­evail

Since the sac­ri­fice of Christ our Sav­ior

For the sins of the world doth avail.

Let all the na­tions now in Him re­joice

Who hath by His pre­cious blood

Redeemed us

and pre­pared a man­sion

In the bright glo­ry land ab­ove.

Out on the mount­ains of sin and des­pair

Millions are per­ish­ing

need­ing our care;

Shall we not send them the mes­sage to­day?

Shall we not help with­out fur­ther de­lay?

Tell them of Je­sus who rose from the grave

Tell them of Je­sus the Migh­ty to Save;

Plenteous sal­va­tion in Him doth abound

Cleansing and heal­ing in Je­sus are found.

Take the world for Je­sus

Sound the great bat­tle cry

Let the mighty chor­us ring;

Take the world for Je­sus

Raise the bright stand­ard high

As we shout

as we march

as we sing.
