Christ shed His blood to wash away our sin,
Erase our guilt, and make us clean with­in;
The Lamb of God re­moved our ev­ery stain,
He died that we might have eter­nal gain.
Then rose again to prove the Scrip­ture true,
Performed the work that on­ly God can do.

How then can we re­ceive this per­fect gift?
Only be­lieve, and feel the bur­den lift.
Christ did it all, and you can do no more:
Now go and spread the news the wide world o’er;
Proclaim that we no long­er need to fear,
Death’s dark­est pri­son or the Judge se­vere.

Send out the light to earth’s re­mot­est bound,
Make sha­dows flee wher­ev­er sin is found;
Speak of the Christ who died our souls to save,
Tell of the God whose pow­er de­stroyed the grave.
Tell how His grace and mer­cy set us free,
That we might live with Him eter­nal­ly.

Announce the King who lives and reigns above,
Publish good tid­ings of His migh­ty love.
Tell how the Spi­rit comes when we be­lieve,
Tell of the pro­mise: He will ne­ver leave.
When Christ re­turns, O, how will we be then?
The Gos­pel spread­ing to the ve­ry end?
