152- Tell Me the Story of Jesus

Jesus Christ: Life and Ministry

1

  • Tell me the story of Jesus,
  • Write on my heart every word,
  • Tell me the story most precious
  • Sweetest that ever was heard;
  • Tell how the angels, in chorus,
  • Sang as they welcomed His birth,
  • Glory to God in the highest,
  • Peace and good tidings to earth.

Refrain

  • Tell me the story of Jesus,
  • Write on my heart every word,
  • Tell me the story most precious,
  • Sweetest that ever was heard.

2

  • Fasting, alone in the desert,
  • Tell of the days that He passed,
  • How for our sins He was tempted,
  • Yet was triumphant at last;
  • Tell of the years of His labor,
  • Tell of the sorrow He bore,
  • He was despised and afflicted,
  • Homeless, rejected, and poor.

3

  • Tell of the cross where they nailed Him,
  • Writhing in anguish and pain;
  • Tell of the grave where they laid Him,
  • Tell how He liveth again;
  • Love in that story so tender,
  • Clearer than ever I see;
  • Stay, let me weep while you whisper,
  • Love paid the ransom for me.
