 Here
I am Lord
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 and night,
I
will make their darkness bright.
Who
will bear my light to them?
Whom
shall I send?
Here
I am Lord
Is
it I 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.
I,
the Lord of snow and rain,
I
have borne 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
Here
I am Lord
Is
it I 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.
I,
the Lord of wind and flame,
I
will tend the poor and lame,
My
hand will save.
Finest
bread I will provide
till
their hearts be satisfied.
I
will give my life to them.
Whom
shall I send?
Here
I am Lord
Is
it I 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.
