The Mission
VERSE 1 D When the runners came from Bethlehem A All breathless with good news GD They were passing a baton forward through time D The commission, from God's lips to our ears A Carried by His saints two thousand years G Connects us all to the same lifeline A As I fix my eyes ahead G I can feel the Spirit's breath...
CHORUS DAG (And) I can hear the mission bell ringing out loud and clear DAG It's the revolution Jesus started, and it's here DAG Echoing across the world from the shores of Galilee DAGDG I can hear the mission bell call for you and me GDG I wanna run with fire GDG It's my heart's desire GDG Lifting your love higher
