Bear the news from shore to shore ;
Telling sinners of the Saviour,
Let the light spread more and more.
Tell the world, . . . the whole wide world;
Bear the news . . . from shore to shore;
Tell the whole wide world of Jesus,
Praise His name for evermore !
2 Send abroad the gospel heralds,
Let them take the blessed light
Into every land of darkness,
Piercing through the shades of night.
3 Yes, we'll send the joyful message
Over mountain, over wave,
Telling everywhere of Jesus,
And His mighty power to save.
4 While we pray for other nations,
Send them help with willing hand;
Let us not forget the home-fields —
Jesus for our native land !
