So Send I You

F                           C7
So send I you to labour unrewarded
                                      F
To serve unpaid, unloved, unsought, unknown
                                    Bb
To bear rebuke, ot suffer scorn and scoffing
          F               C7  F
So send I you to toil for Me alone

So send I you to bind the bruised and broken
Over wandering souls to work, to weep, to wake
To bear the burdens of a world a-weary
So send I you to suffer for My sake

So send I you to loneliness and longing
With hart a-hungering for tthe loved and known
Forsaking kin and kindred, friend and dear one
So send I you to know My love alone

So send I you to leave your life's ambition
To die to dear desire, self-will resign
To labour long, and love where men revile you
So send I you to lsoe you life in Mine

So send I you to hearts made hard by hatred
To eyes made blind because they will not see
To spend, though it be blood to spend and spare not
So send I you to taste of Calvary

 Bb     Am          C7   F   Bb C7     F
"As the Father hath sent me, so send I you"
