 1Hark the voice of Jesus calling
 2.i Daniel March
 3
 4.1
 5Hark, the voice of Jesus calling,
 6“Who will go and work today?
 7Fields are ripe and harvests waiting,
 8Who will bear the sheaves away?”
 9Long and loud the Master calls us,
10Rich reward He offers free;
11Who will answer, gladly saying,
12“Here am I, send me, send me”?
13
14.2
15If you cannot cross the ocean,
16And the distant lands explore,
17You can find the lost around you,
18You can help them at your door;
19If you cannot give your thousands,
20You can give the widow’s mite;
21What you truly give for Jesus,
22Will be precious in His sight.
23
24.3
25If you cannot speak like angels,
26If you cannot preach like Paul,
27You can tell the love of Jesus,
28You can say He died for all.
29If you cannot rouse the wicked,
30With the judgment’s dread alarms,
31You can lead the little children
32To the Savior’s waiting arms.
33
34.4
35If you cannot be the watchman,
36Standing high on Zion’s wall,
37Pointing out the path to heaven,
38Offering life and peace to all,
39With your prayers and with your bounties
40You can do what heaven demands;
41You can be like faithful Aaron,
42Holding up the prophet’s hands.
43
44.5
45If among the older people,
46You may not be apt to teach,
47“Feed My lambs,” said Christ, our Shepherd,
48“Place the food within their reach.”
49And it may be that the children
50You have led with trembling hand,
51Will be found among your jewels,
52When you reach the better land.
53
54.6
55Let none hear you idly saying,
56“There is nothing I can do.”
57While the lost of earth are dying,
58And the Master calls for you;
59Take the task He gives you gladly;
60Let His work your pleasure be;
61Answer quickly when He calls you,
62“Here am I, send me, send me.”
