1. Christ for the world we sing, the world to Christ
we bring, with lov-ing zeal; the poor, and them
that mourn, the faint and o-ver-borne, sin-sick and
sor-row-worn, whom Christ doth heal.
2. Christ for the world we sing, the world to Christ
we bring, with fer-vent prayer; the way-ward and
the lost, by rest-less pas-sions tossed, re-deemed
at count-less cost, from dark de-spair.
3. Christ for the world we sing, the world to Christ
we bring, with one ac-cord; with us the work to
share, with us re-proach to dare, with us the
cross to bear, for Christ our Lord.
4. Christ for the world we sing, the world to Christ
we bring, with joy-ful song; the new-born souls,
whose days, re-claimed from er-ror's ways,
in-spired with hope and praise, to Christ be-long.
