Facing a Task Unfinished

Theology & Meaning

A resetting of the classic missions hymn for the 21st century—the task of global evangelization remains unfinished. Every people group reached is a step toward the consummation. Blends urgency about the unreached world with the joy of participating in God's redemptive purposes.

Worship Leadership Tips

One of the most important missions hymns of the current era. Essential for missions Sundays, sending services, or any gathering focused on the unreached world. Strong as a commissioning song for church planters, missionaries, and outreach leaders. Congregation sings it with increasing conviction.

Arrangement Tips

March-like, full band feel with conviction and momentum. Strong acoustic guitar strumming with piano and rhythm section. Avoid arrangements that feel merely devotional—this hymn has urgency. The congregation should feel the weight of unfinished mission when singing it.
