The Youth of the World

We have heard Thy call

Lord Je­sus

And our hearts re­spond with joy;

We will pledge Thee our al­le­giance

For Thy cause our all em­ploy.

The youth of the world

For the Man of Ga­li­lee!

The youth of the world

From all sin and self set free!

Every tal­ent pledged in serv­ice

Now and through eter­ni­ty

The youth of the world

For the Man of Ga­li­lee!

Wheresoe’er Thy chal­lenge leads us

Whatsoe’er shall be the test

Only make it known

dear Mas­ter

And we pro­mise Thee our best.

Every tal­ent Thou hast giv­en

Not for hid­ing

but for use;

All our time is of Thy lend­ing

To be spent as Thou shalt choose.

Whatsoe’er we are or have

Lord

Shall be sub­ject to Thy will;

Trust us with Thy great­est task

Lord

And with pride our hearts shall thrill.
