Traveling On My Knees

Last night I took a journey

To a land across the seas,

I didn't go by ship or plane...

I traveled on my knees,

I saw so many people there

In bondage to their sin,

And Jesus told me I

should go,

That there were souls to win.

But I said, "Jesus, I

can't go

To lands across the seas,"

He answered quickly,

"Yes you can...

By traveling on your knees,"

He said, "You pray,

I'll meet the need,

You call, and I will hear,

It 's up to you to be concerned

For lost souls far and near,"

And so I did;

I knelt in prayer...

Gave up some hours of ease,

And with the Saviour by my

side...

I traveled on my knees.

As I prayed on, I saw

souls saved and twisted

persons healed.

I saw God 's worker 's

strength renewed while

laboring in the field...

I said, "Yes, Lord, I 'll

take the job,

Your heart I want to please,

I 'll heed your call

and swiftly go

By traveling on my knees."
