Verse 1
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? 
 
Chorus
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. 
 
 
Verse 2
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. 
I will speak My word to them 
Whom shall I send? 
 
Chorus
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. 
 
 
Verse 3
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, 
Till their hearts be satisfied. 
I will give My life to them, 
Whom shall I send? 
 
Chorus
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.
