53. So Send I You

So send I you to labour unrewarded To serve unpaid, unloved, unsought, unknown To bear rebuke, ot suffer scorn and scoffing So send I you to toil for Me alone

So send I you to bind the bruised and broken Over wandering souls to work, to weep, to wake To bear the burdens of a world a-weary So send I you to suffer for My sake

So send I you to loneliness and longing With hart a-hungering for tthe loved and known Forsaking kin and kindred, friend and dear one So send I you to know My love alone

So send I you to leave your life's ambition To die to dear desire, self-will resign To labour long, and love where men revile you So send I you to lsoe you life in Mine

So send I you to hearts made hard by hatred To eyes made blind because they will not see To spend, though it be blood to spend and spare not So send I you to taste of Calvary
