The Commission  (words and music by Richard Blauvelt)

The fields are ripe to harvest.
I heard the Master say.
Look around and you will see
there's no time to delay.
Few are they who heed the call
to go into the fields.
To be the faithful laborers
who'll help retreive the yield.

Won't you...
Go... Go... Go now says the Lord.
Leave this very hour.
Touch them with My power.
Go... Go... Save a lost and dying world.
Save it in the name of the Lord.

Take nothing for your journey
neither bag nor staff. 
My Father who's in heaven
assures you'll have no lack.
All you bind on earth below
is bound in heaven too.
My Father gives Me power
which I pass on to you.

If you'll...
Go... Go... Go now says the Lord.
Leave this very hour.
Touch them with My power.
Go... Go... Save a lost and dying world.
Save it in the name of the Lord.

Behold I've given you all authority.
Over all that satan claims.
Every work of darkness must bow it's knee to you.
By the power of My name.
Go and preach the gospel. Set the captives free.
My words will loose them from their chains.
Go tell them

Go... Go... Go now says the Lord.
Leave this very hour.
Touch them with My power.
Go... Go... Save a lost and dying world.
Save it in the name of the Lord.

Go now says the Lord.
Leave this very hour.
Touch them with My power.
Go... Go... Save a lost and dying world.
Save it in the name of the Lord.
Save it in the name of the Lord.
