1. Once again, dear Lord, we pray
   For the children far away,
   Who have never even heard
   Name of Jesus, sweetest word.

2. Little lips that thou hast made,
   'Neath the far off temple's shade
   Give to gods of wood and stone
   Praise that should be all thine own.

3. Little hands, whose wondrous skill
   Thou has given to do thy will,
   Offerings bring, and serve with fear
   Gods that cannot see or hear.

4. Teach them, O thou heavenly King,
   All their gifts and praise to bring
   To thy Son, who died to prove
   Thy forgiving, saving love.
