The Mission

[Verse 1]
There's a call going out
Across the land in every nation
A call to all who swear allegiance to the cross of Christ
A call to true humility, to live our lives responsibly
To deepen our devotion to the cross at any price

Let us then be sober, moving only in the Spirit
As aliens and strangers in a hostile foreign land
The message we're proclaiming is repentance and forgiveness
The offer of salvation to the dying race of man

[Chorus]
To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
The spring from which our service overflows
Across the street or around the world
The mission's still the same
Proclaim and live the Truth in Jesus' name

[Verse 2]
As a candle is consumed by the passion of the flame
Spilling light unsparingly throughout a darkened room
Let us burn to know Him deeper
Then our service flaming bright
Will radiate his passions
And blaze with holy light (Holy light)

[Chorus]
To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
The spring from which our service overflows
Across the street or around the world
The mission's still the same
Proclaim and live the Truth in Jesus' name
To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
The spring from which our service overflows
Across the street or around the world
The mission's still the same
Proclaim and live the Truth in Jesus' name
(To the Lord our God)
Is the heartbeat of our mission
The spring from which our service overflows
Across the street or around the world
The mission's still the same
Proclaim and live the Truth in Jesus' name

[Outro]
To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
To love the Lord our God
Is the heartbeat of our mission
