Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 ‎#31

31. I Can't Tell It All

1 Oh, I can’t tell it all, of the wonderful love,
How when lost in my sins Jesus found me,
With a heart full of love, how he came from above,
Threw his strong arms of mercy around me.

Refrain:
Oh, I can’t tell it all, no, I can’t tell it all,
For my heart is so full of his glory;
And where’er I may roam, ’tis my joy to make known,
Unto others, the wonderful story.

2 Oh, I can’t tell it all, how he freely forgave;
How the blood flowed with wonderful healing
O’er my lost, guilty soul, how it cleansed and made whole,
While low at the cross I was kneeling. [Refrain]

3 Oh, I can’t tell it all, what a friend he has been;
How he’s borne all my sorrows and sadness,
How he saves me today, bids the mists clear away,
How he turns all my mourning to gladness. [Refrain]

4 Oh, I can’t tell it all, but his love you may know,
You may have him, this wonderful Saviour;
You may taste of his bliss, you may say, I am his,
And he is my portion forever. [Refrain]

5 Oh, I can’t tell it all, but so long as I’ve breath,
I will publish the wonderful story;
When my life-work is done, and a crown has been won,
I will praise him forever in glory. [Refrain]
