YOUR MISSION.

By Daniel March

Hark! the voice of Jesus crying, Who will go and work to-day? Fields are white, and harvest waiting; Who will bear the sheaves away? Loudly now the Master calleth, Rich reward he offers thee; Who will answer, gladly saying, Here am I; send me, send me!

If you cannot cross the ocean And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door. If you cannot give your thousands, You can give the widow's mite; And the least you do for Jesus Will be precious in his sight.

If you cannot be the watchman Standing high on Zion's wall, Pointing out the way to Heaven, Offering life and peace to all, With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what Heaven demands; You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet's hands.

Let none hear you idly saying, There is nothing I can do, While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you. Take the task he gives you gladly, Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when he calleth, Here am I; send me, send me! —Rev. Daniel March.
