Disciples of all na­tions,
The Lord calls us to make,
Baptizing new be­liev­ers
And mak­ing id­ols shake.
He shows us the ex­am­ples,
Of how we should re­spond,
In Scrip­ture sto­ries glo­ri­ous
Of ser­vants now long gone.

Like Sam­uel at Shi­loh,
When came the mid­night call,
Obedient to his mas­ter,
He hur­ried down the hall.
Not ful­ly un­der­stand­ing,
Ignoring any fears,
He gave cou­rag­eous an­swer,
Speak, Lord, Your ser­vant hears.

Like Gi­de­on of Ma­nas­seh,
We think our­selves too small,
But God the Lord is with us,
A tow­er that can­not fall.
We need no migh­ty ar­my,
No wea­pons made of man;
Watch God sup­ply the help­ers,
And then re­veal the plan.

As Ab­ra­ham gave Is­aac,
As par­ents so may we
Be asked to give our child­ren
For ser­vice full and free.
If asked, then, do not fal­ter,
But send them on their way
To spread the won­drous tid­ings,
That night may turn to day.

As Mos­es stood in Egypt,
And God gave words to speak,
So will He give us bold­ness,
Though we be frail and weak.
His Spir­it will em­pow­er us
To reach the sin­ner’s heart
And bring the lost to Je­sus,
As des­tined from the start.

Like Sam­son con­se­crat­ed,
If we stay true to God,
He gives us strength and pow­er,
The Spir­it’s migh­ty rod.
But if we fall away, then,
Our weak­ness will re­turn;
So pray, stay loy­al, faith­ful,
And God His might will lend.

Like Paul, there may be suf­fer­ing,
And hea­vy the de­mands,
But heed not the re­jec­tion,
And hold to His com­mands.
Teach all that I have taught you,
As wit­ness­es be true;
Tell all the world My Gos­pel,
And I will be with you.
