LET US GO FORTH.
131
"LET US GO FORTH!"
"Let us go forth therefore unto Him without the camp, bearing His reproach."—Heb. xiii. 13.
"To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with My Father in His throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches."—Rev. iii. 21, 22.
"Let us go forth!" and leave the world behind us,
And meet the perils of the pilgrim way;
Where Jesus leads, let mocking scoffers find us
Still hastening onward, as they bid us stay.
And meet the perils of the pilgrim way;
Where Jesus leads, let mocking scoffers find us
Still hastening onward, as they bid us stay.
"Let us go forth!" and tell the same sweet story,
How Christ for us a helpless Babe became;
Point to the dying Lamb, the Lord of glory,
Strong in the might that lives in Jesus' Name.
How Christ for us a helpless Babe became;
Point to the dying Lamb, the Lord of glory,
Strong in the might that lives in Jesus' Name.
"Let us go forth!" The pilgrim and the stranger
Owns not the earth his weary foot must tread;
God's sinless Son, once pillowed in the manger,
Had not below whereon to lay His head.

"Let us go forth!" Where Jesus walked before us,
Unmoved by praise or censure's fleeting breath,
God's eye of love is fondly watching o'er us,
The arms Eternal stretching underneath.
