1. To the regions beyond I must go, I must go,
Where the story has never been told; (been told;)
To the millions that never have heard of His love,
I must tell the sweet story of old. (of old.)
(Chorus)
To the regions beyond, (I must go, I must go,)
I must go, I must go, (To the regions beyond I must go,)
Till the world, all the world, (Till the world, all the world,)
His salvation shall know. (His salvation shall know, shall know.)
2. To the hardest of places He calls me to go,
Not thinking of comfort or ease; (or ease;)
The world may pronounce me a dreamer, a fool,
Enough if the Master I please. (I please.)
3. Oh, ye that are spending your leisure and pow’rs,
In pleasures so foolish and fond; (and fond;)
Awake from your selfishness, folly, and sin,
And go to the regions beyond. (beyond.)
4. There are other “lost sheep” that the Master must bring,
And they must the message be told; (be told;)
He sends me to gather them out of all lands,
And welcome them back to His fold. (His fold.)
