Go ev­an­gel­ize the na­tions,
Offer Christ, the Cru­ci­fied;
Show the cross on bleak Gol­go­tha,
Where He suf­fered, bled and died.
Tell of the vi­ne­gar, gall, and the spear,
Tell how the sun hid, earth shook with fear;
How He en­dured the
Cruel mock­ing and shame,
That sin­ners might claim
Salvation in His name.

Go and tell the good news, Chris­tian,
To each bro­ther, sis­ter, child,
Of a gra­cious God who loves them,
Of a Sav­ior meek and mild;
Death is de­stroyed, and our pa­ra­dise won,
For those who love and trust in the Son;
Though guards were set, and
The sto­ny grave sealed,
Now Heav’n is un­lock­ed,
Our home with God re­vealed.

Do not he­si­tate, but go now,
Far and wide proc­laim the sound,
In the city, mar­ket, house­hold,
To wher­ev­er man is found;
Warn of a judg­ment close loom­ing be­yond,
Tomorrow may be too late for some;
Come to Him now, while
His par­don is free,
Take hold of His pro­mise,
Claim His li­ber­ty.
