Lord Am I Willing
Lord am I willing to risk everything
To go spread Your gospel, some souls to win
Am I willing to give up the comforts of home
If from my family You call me to roam
Lord am I willing my comforts to break
To help other people for the gospel’s sake
Am I really willing to help ease the pain
Of someone who’s caught up in life’s violent game
Can I truly say, here I am, I will go
Go tell the people that You love them so
Would I leave all I have and my family behind
Go help the lost, the sick and confined
Am I really willing, willing to make
A complete sacrifice for the gospel’s sake
Would it be out of guilt or by my own choice
Am I willing to say, Lord make me Your voice
Am I really willing to say, Lord send me
To go spread Your gospel, even over the sea
Am I willing to put things in my life behind
To help other people my Savior to find
Am I willing to lose all, to share in their pain
Even when not convenient or for my own gain
Lord help me see others the way You see them
Help me see the condition they’re in
Help me to be willing to put all else aside
To tell them they too can be part of your bride
To tell them You love them in spite of their sin
That You’ll be there for them if invited in
Lord touch my heart with compassion for men
Who are lost and dying with lives full of sin
Give me a heart of compassion today
So I can reach someone who’s going astray.
