“Must I go, and empty-handed,”
Thus my dear Redeemer meet?
Not one day of service give Him,
Lay no trophy at His feet?
“Must I go, and empty-handed?”
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him:
Must I empty-handed go?
2
Not at death I shrink nor falter,
For my Savior saves me now;
But to meet Him empty-handed,
Thought of that now clouds my brow.
“Must I go, and empty-handed?”
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him:
Must I empty-handed go?
3
O the years in sinning wasted;
Could I but recall them now,
I would give them to my Savior,
To His will I’d gladly bow.
“Must I go, and empty-handed?”
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him:
Must I empty-handed go?
4
O ye saints, arouse, be earnest,
Up and work while yet ’tis day;
Ere the night of death o’ertake thee,
Strive for souls while still you may.
“Must I go, and empty-handed?”
Must I meet my Savior so?
Not one soul with which to greet Him:
Must I empty-handed go?

Dear Lord! May I speak the word of the Gospel to someone today! Make my life full of dispensational value. Only You know that the one who gets saved today may preach to others bringing a multitude into your kingdom.
Ikorodu, Lagos, Nigeria
This song is my daily prayer to God, that I may win souls for God, that I may have positive impact on people.
It's so inspirational.
It's reminds me to work while it's day.
It's teaches me to give all my days to God.
It's breaks me spiritually, each time I sing.

The first day I heard this Spirit inspired wake up call hymn in a Redeemed Church bible study in Apapa Lagos . it was this very year 2024. My spirit took hold of all the letters as well as message of this hymn. in my sleep that same night , the HolySpirit kept the hymn in my heart, even till date..
I knew that the call to win souls for the Kingdom of my God came upon me since May 2008, I knew I have done little work so far in the ministry and I knew that the most weapon of Satan this great Call of the LORD upon was carnality and seduction.. my prayer is that the LORD rescue me from being an unfruitful son and servant of God. thank you LORD ESUS!

This song reminds me in difficult situation, knowing fully well that I cannot do anything in life and in my ministry without God. It was sung in an Ordination at St. Andrew Anglican Church, Onitsha on 7/7/2024.. May God Almighty strengthen us IJN Amen.
