Tell me the story of Jesus
Borne on glad lips through the ages
Lest it dies sadly away
Tell me the story of Jesus
How when he was but a lad
He sought His father’s business
Knowing the mission He had
Tell me the story of Jesus
Healing the sick, mute, deaf, blind
Tell me of throngs in his footsteps
Thirsting for Truth, good and kind
Tell me the story of Jesus
Suffering uttermost pain
As sword and thorny crown pierces
Tell me the story again
…how as a Lamb to the slaughter
Goodness and Mercy was led
How, as nails impaled His body
Still, for forgiveness He pled
Tell me of cross-hope, redemption
Tell me of Jesus, God’s Son
How at the words ‘it is finished’
Death and hell were overcome
Tell me how rocks could not hold Him
This Sacrifice for man’s sin
How from the throne of God’s Heaven
Tell me the story of Jesus
Until Death’s victor releases
