The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship ‎#82

82. The Story Must Be Told!

1 There are many who are strangers to the Saviour's love
Still wand'ring from the tender Shepherd's fold,
And, to lead them out of darkness to the glorious light,
The blessed gospel story must be told.

Refrain:
It must be told, the story must be told
To souls who far have wandered from the Shepherd's fold;
That they this light from heaven may behold,
The blessed gospel story must be told.

2 Stand not idly by, my brother, go and seek today
The lost ones on the desert dark and cold;
Go, proclaim the joyful tidings of the Saviour's love,
The blessed gospel story must be told. [Refrain]

3 Go ye into ev'ry nation is the Lord's command,
And thro' the glorious message there unfold
Unto them the wondrous offer of His pard'ning grace,
The blessed gospel story must be told. [Refrain]
