APPENDIX K

Here I Am, Lord

1. I, the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my people cry.  All who dwell in dark and sin My hand will save.  I who made the stars of night, I will make their darkness bright.  Who will bear My light to them?  Whom shall  I send?

Refrain:     Here I am, Lord.  Is it 1, 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.

2. I, the Lord of snow and rain, I have born 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 words to them.  Whom shall  I send?

3. 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, til their hearts be satisfied. I will give my life to them.  Whom shall I send?
