Isa 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

THE HARVEST IS PLENTIFUL

The Word of The Lord has been planted as seed,
The Lord of the harvest is bringing in the harvest,
His voice hearkens to you and me “Can I send you?”
The harvest is plentiful It’s labourers I need.

Will we gladly respond “Here I am Lord send me.”
Or will we look around and say “Please Lord send another,”
Will we boldly go and proclaim “One way to God there is no other.”
For it was for all the lost that Jesus died, can’t you see?

Lord cleanse deep within our hearts, start with mine,
Rid me of all my foolish ways, make me over anew,
Oh Lord our God, You must increase, we must decrease,
From now on let our foolish striving in fleshly ways cease.

So Lord when we hear your cry “Will you go for me?”
Let us gladly respond “Here I am Lord send me.”
“Anoint us and commission us Lord for the work we must do,
That the people out there will know that you love them too!”

Irene Mc Gough 2007
