Lyrics

Who am I? A little one.
What can I possibly do?
Who am I? I'm just a child
A child who wants to serve You.

I can't speak another tongue.
Who'd take me? I'm so young.
Here am I, a simple soul.
Send me, Lord. Let me go.

Chorus: Here am I. Send me, Lord.
Send me out, and I'll obey.
Here am I. Send me, Lord.
Let Your Spirit tell me what to say.

I see the world so full of needs
And full of unreached people, too.
Someone's got to sacrifice.
I know that's what you want me to do.

(Chorus)

Lord, You are the King of kings
You're my Master; I'm Your slave
Now you've made me all Your own
And from my heart I say:
(Chorus)

Nice message delivered in a nice, delicate manner--as all her songs are.

I like the children's voices and the lead singers voice, this song also has a great message.

The woman vocalist accompanying the children's vocals are a really good blend. I can picture this as a sing-along on a religious television show or video/dvd. A good clean and wholesome message, bravo! The music industry needs a lot more songs like this, and thank you for writing it.
