The Debt We Owe



Hymns - The Debt We Owe - Текст песни

# The Lord of the harvest is calling
For laborers true in His field,
To gather the sheaves ere they perish,
When mercy no more is revealed;
We bask in the sunlight of glory,
On heavenly manna we???re fed,
While souls o???er the ocean, in darkness,
Are starving for life-giving bread.

 * Refrain:
 They perish, they perish,
 Yet Jesus to save them has died;
 Go pay them the debt that we owe them,
 Those souls who in darkness abide.

# The Savior hath given us freely
Salvation and grace through His name,
He bids us to publish His gospel,
Its words to all creatures proclaim;
We???re debtors to those who are dying,
And never its power have known;
Can we who so richly are favored
Still leave them to perish alone?
# When taking His word to the lost ones,
It is not a gift we bestow:
By working and praying and giving,
We pay but the debt that we owe;
If millions are lost at the judgment,
Their cries shall our conscience upbraid,
Because when their souls we could rescue,
Our debt unto them was not paid.
# Much grain now is falling ungathered,
While many stand idle and wait;
The harvest time soon will be ended,
For garnering then ???tis too late;
O soul, prove thy love to the Savior,
For what He has done unto thee,
By sending the tidings of mercy
To lost ones o???er land and o???er sea
