Author: Mrs. F. A. Breck Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #27 (1916) First Line: How many are lost in the darkness Refrain First Line: Some one must tell them who knows Lyrics: 1 How many are lost in the darkness, With spirits whose sorrow o’erflows; They know not of Christ or salvation, - Ah! some one must tell them who knows. Chorus: Some one must tell them who knows The mercy that Jesus bestows: Oh, let the Light shine, tell the message divine, For some one must tell them who knows. 2 Go forth to the needy and love them With something of Jesus’ own love, And win them to share in His kingdom. Of gladness and glory above. [Chorus] 3 They’re waiting, perhaps, for your coming; You surely will hasten to go, And teach them of life everlasting, The wonderful Gospel you know. [Chorus] 4 Wherever are sinners around you, By woe or temptation o’erthrown, Oh, bid them take freely God’s blessing, Make Jesus the Comforter known.
