He's Calling You

Go spread the blessed gospel, Wherever souls may be

Tune: [Go spread the blessed gospel]
Published in 5 hymnals


Representative Text

1 Go spread the blessed gospel,
Wherever souls may be,
God calls for willing workers,
Does that mean you and me?
If so then hasten brother,
Let now this work begin,
God calls you, Be a helper,
To lead lost souls to Him.

Refrain:
He's calling you He's calling you
Into the field of sin,
Make no delay, But go today,
and bring the lost to Him.

2 The Lord wants earnest workers,
So let the gospel sound,
At home and o'er the ocean,
Wherever man is found;
Why stand you daily idle,
As tho' 'twas all a dream?
While souls are lost and needing,
Redeeming love supreme. [Refrain]

3 Awake ye christian sleepers,
The hours are flying fast,
Waste not the precious moments,
The day will soon be past;
When you are facing judgment,
How many will have heard,
The Gospel of the Savior,
The blessed saving word. [Refrain]
