Here I Am, Lord

"I, the Lord of sea and sky,

I have heard my people cry.

All who swell in deepest sin

My hand will save.

 

I, who make the stars of night,

I will make their darkness bright

Who will bear My light to them?

Whom shall I send?"

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard You calling in the night.

I will go, Lord, if You lead me.

I will hold Your people in my heart.

 

"I, the Lord of snow and rain,

I have borne my people's pain.

I have wept for love of them. They turn away.

 

I will break their hearts of stone,

Give them hearts for love alone.

I will speak My Word to them.

Whom shall I send?"

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard You calling in the night.

I will go, Lord, if You lead me.

I will hold Your people in my heart.

 

"I, the Lord of wind and flame,

I will tend the poor and lame.

I will set a feast for them. My hand will save.

 

Finest bread I will provide

Till their hearts be satisfied.

I will give My life to them.

Whom shall I send?"

 

Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord?

I have heard You calling in the night.

I will go, Lord, if You lead me.

I will hold Your people in my heart.
