Acapeldridge performs the classic hymn 'Send the Light,' a missionary song calling believers to spread the gospel worldwide. The lyrics echo the Macedonian call from Acts 16, urging Christians to rescue souls and share God's light. It emphasizes prayer for grace, a Christlike spirit, and perseverance in love's work, with a refrain about the gospel light shining from shore to shore. The song encourages faithful service and gathering heavenly rewards.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

There?s a call comes ringing o?er the restless wave,

?Send the light! Send the light!?

There are souls to rescue, there are souls to save,

Send the light! Send the light!


Refrain:

Send the light, the blessed Gospel light;

Let it shine from shore to shore!

Send the light, and let its radiant beams

Light the world forevermore!


We have heard the Macedonian call today,

?Send the light! Send the light!?

And a golden off?ring at the cross we lay,

Send the light! Send the light!


Let us pray that grace may everywhere abound,

?Send the light! Send the light!?

And a Christlike spirit everywhere be found,

Send the light! Send the light!


Let us not grow weary in the work of love,

?Send the light! Send the light!?

Let us gather jewels for a crown above,

Send the light! Send the light!
