                    There's a land long since neglected,   Through the promise on God’s pages,
                      There's a people still rejected,     Through His work in history's stages.
                    But of truth and grace elected,      Through the cross that crowns the ages,
                      In His love for them.                Show his love to them.
                                                                                                    r

                    Softer than their night wind's fleeting   With the prayer that still availeth.
                      Richer than their starry tenting,    With the host that still prevaileth,
                    Stronger than their sands protecting,   With the love that never faileth.
                      Is His love for them.                Tell His love to them.

                    To the host of Islam's leading.      Till the desert's sons, now aliens.
                      To the slave in bondage bleeding.    Till its tribes and their dominions.
                  • To the desert dweller pleading,      Till Arabia's raptured millions,
                      Bring his love to them.              Praise His love of them.
