1 "Go preach my gospel, (saith the Lord,) "Bid the whole earth my grace receive; "He shall be sav'd that trusts my word, "He shall be damn'd that won't believe.
2 "[I'll make your great commission known, "And ye shall prove my gospel true "By all the works that I have done, "By all the wonders ye shall do.
3 "Go heal the sick, go raise the dead, "Go cast out devils in my name; "Nor let my prophets be afraid, "Tho' Greeks reproach, and Jews blaspheme.]
4 "Teach all the nations my commands, "I'm with you till the world shall end; "All power is trusted to my hands, "I can destroy, and I defend."
He spake, and light shone round his head, On a bright cloud to heaven he rode; They to the farthest nations spread The grace of their ascended God.
