Isaiah 6:8

• [Isa 6:8] From The Depths Of Sin And Failure

  From the depths of sin and failure, From despair as black as night, Lord, we hear our brothers calling For deliverance and for light. Refrain Use us, Lord, to speed Thy kingdom; Through us may Thy will be done; Give us eyes to see the vision Of a world redeemed and won. By the love that bore in silence Man’s contempt and Satan’s dart; By the longing for the lost ones That consumes the Savior’s heart; Refrain By the Savior’s blood that bought us, By the peace His merits bring, By the Spirit that constrains us Now on earth to crown Him King; Refrain

• [Isa 6:8] Hark, The Voice Of Jesus Calling

  Hark, the voice of Jesus calling, “Who will go and work today? Fields are ripe and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?” Long and loud the Master calls us, Rich reward He offers free; Who will answer, gladly saying, “Here am I, send me, send me”? If you cannot cross the ocean, And the distant lands explore, You can find the lost around you, You can help them at your door; If you cannot give your thousands, You can give the widow’s mite; What you truly give for Jesus, Will be precious in His sight. If you cannot speak like angels, If you cannot preach like Paul, You can tell the love of Jesus, You can say He died for all. If you cannot rouse the wicked, With the judgment’s dread alarms, You can lead the little children To the Savior’s waiting arms. If you cannot be the watchman, Standing high on Zion’s wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all, With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what heaven demands; You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet’s hands. If among the older people, You may not be apt to teach, “Feed My lambs,” said Christ, our Shepherd, “Place the food within their reach.” And it may be that the children You have led with trembling hand, Will be found among your jewels, When you reach the better land. Let none hear you idly saying, “There is nothing I can do.” While the lost of earth are dying, And the Master calls for you; Take the task He gives you gladly; Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calls you, “Here am I, send me, send me.”

• [Isa 6:8] Lord Of Life, Prophetic Spirit

  Lord of Life, prophetic Spirit, In sweet measure evermore To the holy children dealing Each his gift from Thy rich store; Bless Thy family, adoring As in Israel’s schools of yore. Holy Jesus, Eye most loving, On each young disciple bent; Voice that, seeming earthly, summoned Samuel to the awful tent; Hand that cast Elijah’s mantle; Thine be all Thy grace hath lent. As to Thine own seventy scholars Thou of old Thine arm didst reach, Under Thy majestic shadow Guiding them to do and teach, Till their hour of solemn unction; So be with us all and each. God and Father of all spirits, Whose dread call young Joshua knew, Forty days in darkness waiting With Thy servant good and true, Thence to wage Thy war descending, Own us, Lord, Thy champions, too. One Thy light, the temple filling, Holy, holy, holy Three; Meanest men and brightest angels Wait alike the word from Thee; Highest musings, lowliest worship, Must their preparation be. Now Thou speakest—hear we trembling— From the glory comes a voice. Who accepts th’Almighty’s mission? Who will make Christ’s work his choice? Who for Us proclaim to sinners, Turn, believe, endure, rejoice? Here are we, Redeemer, send us! But because Thy work is fire, And our lips, unclean and earthly, Breathe no breath of high desire; Send Thy seraph from the altar Veiled, but in his bright attire. Cause him, Lord, to fly full swiftly With the mystic coal in hand, Sin consuming, soul transforming, (Faith and love will understand); Touch our lips, Thou awful Mercy With Thine own keen healing brand. Thou didst come that fire to kindle; Fain would we Thy torches prove, Far and wide Thy beacons lighting With th’undying spark of love: Only feed our flame, we pray Thee, With Thy breathings from above. Now to God, the soul’s Creator, To His Word and wisdom sure, To His all enlightening Spirit, Patron of the frail and poor, Three in One, be praise and glory, Here and while the heav’ns endure.

• [Isa 6:8] Master Comes! He Calls For Thee, The

  The Master comes! He calls for thee— Go forth at His almighty word, Obedient to His last command, And tell to those who never heard, Who sit in deepest shades of night, That Christ has come to give them light. The Master calls! Arise and go; How blest His messenger to be! He, who hath given thee liberty, Now bids thee set the captives free; Proclaim His mighty power to save, Who for the world His lifeblood gave. The Master calls! Shall not thy heart In warm responsive love reply, “Lord, here am I; send me, send me, Thy willing slave, to live or die— An instrument unfit indeed, Yet Thou wilt give me what I need”? And if thou canst not go, yet bring An offering of a willing heart; Then, though thou tarriest at home, Thy God shall give thee too thy part; The messengers of peace upbear In ceaseless and prevailing prayer. Short is the time for service true, For soon shall dawn that glorious day When, all the harvest gathered in, Each faithful heart shall hear Him say, “My child, well done! your toil is o’er— Enter My joy forevermore.”

  Someone shall go at the Master’s word Over the sea to the lands afar, Telling to those who have never heard What His wonderful mercies are. Shall it be you—shall it be I? Who shall haste to tell what we know so well? Shall you? Shall I? Someone shall gather the sheaves for Him, Someone shall bind them with joyful hand, Someone shall toil through the shadows dim, For the morn in the heav’nly land. Shall it be you—shall it be I? Who shall bind the corn for the golden morn? Shall you? Shall I?

  The voice of God is calling its summons in our day; Isaiah heard in Zion and we now hear God say: “Whom shall I send to succor my people in their need? Whom shall I send to loosen the bonds of shame and greed?” “I hear My people crying in slum and mine and mill; No field or mart is silent, no city street is still. I see My people falling in darkness and despair. Whom shall I send to shatter the fetters which they bear?” We heed, O Lord, Your summons, and answer: Here are we! Send us upon Your errand, let us Your servants be. Our strength is dust and ashes, our years a passing hour; But You can use our weakness to magnify Your power. From ease and plenty save us; from pride of place absolve; Purge us of low desire; lift us to high resolve; Take us, and make us holy; teach us Your will and way. Speak, and behold! We answer; command, and we obey!

Through desert ways, dark fen and deep morass, Through jungles, sluggish seas, and mountain pass, Build now the road, and falter not, nor stay; Prepare across the earth the King’s highway. Where once the twisting trail in darkness wound, Let marching feet and joyous song resound, Where burn the funeral pyres, and censers swing, Make straight, make straight the highway of the King. Lord, give us faith and strength the road to build, To see the promise of the day fulfilled, When war shall be no more, and strife shall cease Upon the highway of the Prince of Peace.
