Missionaries… called by God to preach* and perform what they teach
anchored upon Scriptures, exemplifying Christ in good works’ earnestness
souls they compassionately win, as hearts by grace they reach
labouring with mercy and truth, praying while building lives, despite afflictions
sacrificing, taking up own cross, conquering individual selfishness
presenting Gospel of redemption; to repent, fellow men beseech
while offering eternal security as gift from the Saviour’s loving kindness.
*1Corinthians 9:14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
