here i am, lord

Singer:schutte, dan

i

the lord of sea and sky

i have heard my people cry

all who dwell in dark and sin

my hand will save

i

who made the stars of night

i will make their darkness bright

who will bear my light to them?

whom shall i send?

here i am

lord. is it i

lord?

i have heard you calling in the night

i will go

lord

if you lead me

i will hold your people in my heart

i

the lord of snow and rain

i have borne my people's pain

i have wept for love of them

they turn away

i will break their hearts of stone

give them hearts for love alone

who will speak my word to them

whom shall i send?

here i am

lord. is it i

lord?

i have heard you calling in the night

i will go

lord

if you lead me

i will hold your people in my heart

i

the lord of wind and flame

i will tend the poor and lame

i will set a feast for them

my hand will save

finest bread i will provide

'til their hearts be satisfied

i will give my life to them

whom shall i send?

here i am

lord. is it i

lord?

i have heard you calling in the night

i will go

lord

if you lead me

i will hold your people in my heart
