Last night I took a journey to a land across the seas; I did not go by boat or
plane, I travelled on my knees I saw many people there In deepest depths of sin,
But Jesus told me I should go, That there were souls to win. But I said," Jesus,
I cannot go And work with such as these." He answered quickly," Yes, you can By
travelling on your knees." He said, "You pray; I'll meet the need, You call and
I will hear; Be concerned about lost souls, Of those both far and near." And so
I tried, knelt in prayer, Gave up some hours of ease; I felt the Lord right by
my side While travelling on my knees. As I prayed on and saw souls saved And
twisted bodies healed, And saw God's workers' strength renewed While labouring
on the field. I said, Yes, Lord, I have a job, My desire Thy Will to please; I
can go and heed Thy call By travelling on my knees."
