D A D
Tell me the story of Jesus, write on my heart every word.
D G D A D
Tell me the story most precious, sweetest that ever was heard.
G D A D
Tell how the angels in chorus sang as they welcomed His birth,
G D A
"Glory to God in the highest! Peace and good tidings to earth."
D A D
Tell me the story of Jesus, write on my heart every word.
D G D A D
Tell me the story most precious, sweetest that ever was heard.
D A D
Fasting alone in the desert, tell of the days tat are past,
D G D A D
How for our sins He was tempted, yet was triumphant at last.
G D A D
Tell of the years of His labor, tell of the sorrow He bore,
G D A
He was despised and afflicted, homeless, rejected and poor.
D A D
Tell of the cross where they nailed Him, writhing in anguish and pain.
D G D A D
Tell of the grave where they laid Him, tell how He liveth again.
G D A D
Love in that story so tender clearer than ever I see.
G D A
Stay, let me weep while you whisper, love paid the ransom for me.
