The spirit of the Lord is upon me
To preach good news to the poor
To bind up the broken-hearted
To make you known even more

So that people living in darkness
Will see the great light

I’ll be the carrier of love and compassion
I’ll be the carrier of light to the world
I’ll be the carrier of hope and salvation
I will go shine your light to the world
I will go shine your light to the world

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
Freedom and truth to proclaim
Trade your ashes for the oil of gladness
And your sorrows for garments of praise

Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me
