An Old Missionary Hymn

THINK on our brethren, Lord, Who preach the gospel word, In spirit free and bold, In hunger, heat, and cold; Thou art their strength and shield, Help them to win the field.
Give them an open door, With wisdom, love, and power To tell what thou hast done For all men to atone, And thus in every place They will show forth thy grace.
O Lord, before them go; To every sinner show What need he hath of thee, And then most mightily Impress upon his heart That thou his Saviour art.
Thou Workman great and wise! Who shall thy work despise? Our weakness well thou know'st; Of nothing can we boast, But that we trust thy Word, And know thou art our Lord.
