Blessings come for gospel pleasure
For all peoples to delight
In Christ their sovereign treasure
And joy to know no height
Nations round are yet to know
A hope to be forgiven
So cause our grace to grow
That to Christ they may be driven
We plead for grace
Not for self and ease
But to run the race
Across the seas
Except you bless us
We cannot go
The riches of Jesus
They will not know
So give more grace
And grant more blessing
To set the pace
Till they’re confessing
In every land
Where Christ not known
The faith you command
In Christ alone
There are other sheep
That must be brought
A charge to keep
For those you bought
Grant them to repent
Give them faith to choose
For their hearts are bent
Their wills refuse
S o bless us well
And grace increase
For we must tell
God’s terms of peace
To make them sing
And make them true
Worshippers of the King
Now made brand new
