Eb             Fm    Bb Eb    Eb  Bb    Eb Bb7    Eb Bb
Christ for the world we sing, The world to Christ we bring,

With loving zeal;

Sin-sick and sorrow-worn, Whom Christ doth heal.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with loving zeal;
the poor, and them that mourn,
the faint and overborne,
sinsick and sorrow-worn,
whom Christ doth heal.

[Verse 2]
Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with fervent prayer;
the wayward and the lost,
by restless passions tossed,
redeemed at countless cost,
from dark despair.

[Verse 3]
Christ for the world we sing,
the world to Christ we bring,
with joyful song;
the newborn souls, whose days,
reclaimed from error’s ways,
inspired with hope and praise,
to Christ belong.
