From the recording "Missionary" (rough draft:)
This is a very rough draft of a song the Lord gave me the other day for Missionaries. Specifically, those who are full-time in a foreign land not their own. Who have left all to follow Jesus for the sake of the Gospel.
Thank you. Thank you for responding to the Call of God on your lives! Big D:)
Lyrics
MISSIONARY
Called to go-called to leave everything you know;
Sacrifice-sacrifice all the comforts of this life
But you counted the cost, and you found it’s not too high
a price; To reach the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Chorus:
Soldier of the Cross, this world is not worthy of you;
Servant of God, we say “thank you.”
This song is just for you, to honor your mission to go .... in His Name
Mi s s i o n a r y
Home, so far away from home; Strangers in a land and unknown;
But you count all things loss, to show them Jesus paid the cost
you’re reaching the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Chorus
bridge:
And when it gets hard and the road is long; You wonder if the fruit will ever come; remember that you’re not alone... we’re in this together, & missionary....we are almost home! Chorus
