lyrics
How beautiful are the feet that carry the good news
Over land, over seas to places without You
Wake us up, lift our eyes to see the harvest, it is white
But the laborers are few
Here we are and here we rise
Bought by the blood of Christ
And we want to follow You, we want to follow You
Here we are, God! Would you send us?
To the darkness carrying your light
We are yours, though it cost us
We will go, speak the words of life
Take our lives, we lay them down
We want to live for You
We take our cross and we are found
When we lose ourselves for You
Here we are, God! Would you send us?
To the darkness carrying your light
We are yours, though it cost us
We will go, speak the words of life
We take up our cross, die to ourselves
We know the cost, it’s worth it
No other name, no other one
We know our God is worth it
We take up our cross, die to ourselves
We count the cost, it’s worth it
No other name, no other one
We know our God is worth it
Here we are, God! Would you send us?
To the darkness carrying your light
We are yours, though it cost us
We will go, speak the words of life
