The Regions Beyond

Albert B. Simpson • English

Primary Scripture: Matthew 18:11

Verse 1

To the regions beyond I must go, I must go Where the story has never been told; To the millions that never have heard of His love, I must tell the sweet story of old.

Chorus

To the regions beyond I must go, I must go, Till the world, all the world, His salvation shall know.

Verse 2

To the hardest of places He calls me to go, Never thinking of comfort or ease; The world may pronounce me a dreamer, a fool, Enough if the Master I please.

Chorus

To the regions beyond I must go, I must go, Till the world, all the world, His salvation shall know.

Verse 3

Oh, you that are spending your leisure and pow'rs In those pleasures so foolish and fond; Awake from your selfishness, folly and sin, And go to the regions beyond.

Chorus

To the regions beyond I must go, I must go, Till the world, all the world, His salvation shall know.

Verse 4

There are other “lost sheep” that the Master must bring, And to them must the message be told; He sends me to gather them out of all lands, And welcome them back to His fold.

Chorus

To the regions beyond I must go, I must go, Till the world, all the world, His salvation shall know.
