A CALL TO SERVE
Den norske misjonssangen (The Oslo Norway Mission Song)
midi
1. A living prophet of God has called us to serve
in the land of the midnight sun.
Here the gospel we’ll spread, to searching souls we’ll be lead;
little time, but much work to be done.
Chorus:
Father prepare us, thy spirit let guide us;
help us worthily serve night and day.
That thy sheep may be found and baptisms abound,
and thy work go ever forward in Norway.
2. There are many who wait to enter the gate
that leads to Celestial goals.
Find a family today, to unite in this way;
our purpose here is to save souls.
Chorus
Tekst og melodi: Rodney Foster (ca. 1971)
Opprinnelse (origian)
The story goes Elder Foster arose from a dream, went to a piano and played and wrote down the whole song. Even as a TBM I used to say under my breath ... he should have stayed in bed and followed the mission rules. We sang this at all mission gatherings, somewhat like Das Panzerlied ...
