This Land is Mine

This Land is Mine

Everywhere I set my foot

I claim in God’s name.

‘Tis He that makes my love to flow

And conquers all.

I hear His call

And life doth grow.

T’will never be the same

If I approach His mission work

With timid step

And cup so small.

I’ll not receive the inheritance

The gift He gives

When He bids of me

Take all, take all.

Dare then I shout

This is my land – I claim for Him.

The transformation within, without

I’ll walk with sturdy

Humble step,

And claim with arms stretched wide,

Then fold each child inside,

With grace and blessing,

As He gives me.

This field is mine

My work – His ministry.
