When I was attending Midwestern college in Iowa, we used to sing a great song at the Pennsylvania Avenue church. It was written by James McGranahan and was titled "Go Ye Into All the World." It has been going through my mind for some time now and I wonder how many of my friends remember this song too. It still stirs my heart to "send forth the gospel!"
Far, far away, in heathen darkness dwelling, Millions of souls forever may be lost; Who, who will go, salvation's story telling, Looking to Jesus, minding not the cost?
CHORUS: "All power is given unto Me, All power is given unto Me, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel, And lo, I am with you alway."
See o'er the world wide-open doors inviting, Soldiers of Christ, arise and enter in! Christians, awake! your forces all uniting, Send forth the gospel, break the chains of sin.
"Why will ye die?" the voice of God is calling, "Why will ye die?" re-echo in His name; Jesus hath died to save from death appalling, Life and salvation therefore go proclaim.
God speed the day, when those of every nation "Glory to God!" triumphantly shall sing; Ransomed, redeemed, rejoicing in salvation, Shout Hallelujah, for the Lord is King.
