O’er the mount­ain, thro’ the val­ley,
Or e’en where the dark wa­ters flow;
Into crowd­ed street or al­ley,
Should my Sav­ior call me, I’ll go.
He found me lost and for­sak­en;
My heart from sin He made free;
And now, with cour­age un­shak­en,
I an­swer, Here, Lord, send me.

Refrain

Send me, O Lord, on a mis­sion!
Whenever, wher­ev­er it be,
In will­ing and loy­al sub­miss­ion,
I’ll an­swer, Here, Lord, send me.

To the dwell­ings of the low­ly,
Or man­sions all state­ly and grand,
With the mes­sage pure and ho­ly,
I will go at my Lord’s com­mand.
No mat­ter where I am need­ed,
At home, or ov­er the sea,
His call will ev­er be heed­ed,
I’ll an­swer, Here, Lord, send me.

Refrain

O if I can on­ly light­en
The bur­den of some­one op­pressed;
Or by deeds of kind­ness bright­en
For a mo­ment some life dis­tressed,
I’ll glad­ly work in God’s vine­yard,
His hum­ble ser­vant will be;
And when He call­eth for la­bor­ers,
I’ll an­swer, Here, Lord, send me.
