Your Mission.
Il you cannot on the ocean
Sail among the swiftest fleet,
Rocking on the highest pillows,
Laughing at the storms you meet.
You can stand among the sailors, =
Anchored yet within the bay,
You III lend q hand to help them,
As they launch their boats away
II o are too weak to journey,
Up the mountains steep and high.
You can stand within the valley,
While the multitudea 90 by.
You can chant In happy measure,
As they slowly pass along:
Though they may forget the SINGER,
They will not forget the song.
II you have not gold and silver,
Ever ready to command.
II you cannot towards tbs needy
Reach an ever open hand,
You can visit the afflicted.
Ger the erring you can weep.
You can be a true disciple,
Sitting at the Savior's feet.
II you cannot in the conflict
Prove yourself a soldier true,
IL where fire and smoke are thickest,
There's no work for you to do.
When the battlefield is silent,
You can 90 with careful tread,
You can bear away the wounded,
You can cover up the dead.
Do not then stand idly waiting
For some greater work to do.
Fortune is a lazy goddess.
She will never come to you.
Go and toll in any vineyard,
DO o fear to do or dare
If you want a field Of labor,
You al find it anywhere.
