"Go ye into the world, and preach 
the gospel to every creature"
 - Mark. 16:15



1.  RESCUE the perishing, care for the dying

     Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave

     Weep o‘er the erring ones

     Lift up the fallen

     Tell them of Jesus the Mighty to save.

Chorus: Rescue the perishing, 
 
              care for the dying

              Jesus is merciful, 

              Jesus will save.


2.  Though they are slighting Him

     Still He is waiting

     Waiting the penitent child to receive

     Plead with them earnestly,

     Plead with them gently

     He will forgive if thy only believe.

Chorus: Rescue the perishing...


3.  Rescue the perishin, duty demands it

     Strength for thy labour the Lord will provide

     Back to the narrow way

     Patiently win them

     Tell the poor wand‘rer a Saviour had died.

Chorus: Rescue the perishing, 
 
              care for the dying

              Jesus is merciful, 

              Jesus will save.  Amen
