Full Text

1 Lord, a Saviour's love displaying, Show the heathen lands Thy way; Thousands still like sheep are straying In the dark and cloudy day. 2 Shades of death are gathering o'er them, Lord, they perish from Thy sight! Let Thine angel go before them; Bring the Gentiles to Thy light. 3 Fetch them home from every nation, From the islands of the sea; By the word of Thy salvation Call the wanderers back to Thee. 4 Thou their pasture hast provided, Grant the blessing long foretold; Let Thy sheep, divinely guided, Find at last the one true fold. Amen.
