Give Thought to Africa Lyrics

Give a thought to africa
'Neath the burning sun
There are hosts of weary hearts
Waiting to be won
Many hearts have passed away
on swamps and soils
There are voices crying now
for the Living God
Refrain:
Tell the Love of Jesus
By the hills and waters
God bless Africa
and Her sons and daughters
Breathe a prayer for Africa
A prayer sincere and True
In this continent of ours

There is much to do
There are many souls to win
from darkness and sin
There are many hearts to cheer
Sun in deep despair
Give You love to Africa
we are brothers all
Who by sin and lavery
long were held in thrall
Let the white man love the black
and when time is passed
In our Father's home above
all shall meet at last
Give support to Africa
Has not British gold
Been the gain of tears and blood
when the slaves were sold
Let us send the Gospel back
since for all their need
Those whom Jesus Christ has freed
shall be free indeed
