Song Lyrics

Facing a Task Unfinished

Facing a task unfinished,

That drives us to our knees.

A need that, undiminished,

Rebukes our slothful ease.

We, who rejoice to know Thee,

Renew before Thy throne

The solemn pledge we owe Thee

To go and make Thee known.

 

We go to all the world,

With kingdom hope unfurled.

No other name has power to save

But Jesus Christ the Lord.

 

Where other lords beside Thee

Hold their unhindered sway;

Where forces that defied Thee,

Defy Thee still today.

With none to heed their crying

For life, and love, and light,

Unnumbered souls are dying

And pass into the night.

 

We bear the torch that, flaming,

Fell from the hands of those

Who gave their lives proclaiming

That Jesus died and rose.

Ours is the same commission,

The same glad message ours;

Fired by the same ambition,

To Thee we yield our powers.

 

O Father who sustained them,

O Spirit who inspired,

Savior, whose love constrained them

To toil with zeal untired.

From cowardice defend us,

From lethargy awake!

Forth on Thy errands send us

To labor for Thy sake.

 

Let Your Kingdom Come

Your glorious cause, O God

Engages our hearts

May Jesus Christ be known

Wherever we are

We ask not for ourselves

But for Your renown

The cross has saved us so we pray

“Your kingdom come”

 

Let Your kingdom come

Let Your will be done

So that everyone

Might know Your Name

Let Your song be heard

Everywhere on earth

Till Your sovereign work

On earth is done

Let Your Kingdom come

 

Give us Your strength, O God

And courage to speak

Perform Your wondrous deeds

Through those who are weak

Lord, use us as You want

Whatever the test

By grace we’ll preach Your Gospel till

Our dying breath.

 

Only a Holy God

Who else commands all the hosts of heaven

Who else could make every king bow down

Who else can whisper and darkness trembles

Only a Holy God

 

What other beauty demands such praises

What other splendour outshines the sun

What other majesty rules with justice

Only a Holy God

 

Come and behold Him

The One and the Only

Cry out sing holy

Forever a Holy God

Come and worship the Holy God

 

What other glory consumes like fire

What other power can raise the dead

What other name remains undefeated

Only a Holy God

 

Who else could rescue me from my failing

Who else would offer His only Son

Who else invites me to call Him Father

Only a Holy God

Only my Holy God
