451 Missionary Chant. L.M.

_Mission to the Heathen._ (1030)

Behold, the heathen waits to know

The joy the gospel will bestow;

The exiled captive to receive

The freedom Jesus has to give.

2 Come, let us, with a grateful heart,

In this blest labor share a part;

Our prayers and offerings gladly bring

To aid the triumphs of our King.

3 Our hearts exult in songs of praise,

That we have seen these latter days,

When our Redeemer shall be known

Where Satan long has held his throne.

4 Where'er his hand hath spread the skies,

Sweet incense to his name shall rise,

And slave and freeman, Greek and Jew,

By sovereign grace be formed anew.

Voke.
