     35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. 36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.(KJV)

     1 And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

     5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.(KJV)

1. Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah, 
Pilgrim through this barren land. 
I am weak but Thou art mighty; 
Hold me with Thy powerful hand. 
Bread of heaven, 
Feed me till I want no more. 

2. Open now the crystal fountain 
Whence the healing stream doth flow; 
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar 
Lead me all my journey through. 
Strong Deliverer 
Be Thou still my Strength and Shield. 

3. When I tread the verge of Jordan, 
Bid my anxious fears subside; 
Death of death and hell’s Destruction, 
Land me safe on Canaan’s side. 
Songs of praises 
I will ever give to Thee.
