Young People's Songs of Praise ‎#37

37. The Gospel Story

1 To Him whose care prolongs our days,
Whose love demands our highest praise,
Our grateful songs again we raise
And tell the gospel story.

Refrain:
And tell the gospel story
Of Christ the King of glory;
Our grateful songs again we raise
And tell the gospel story.

2 Thrice welcome hour, with joy replete,
While at His throne of grace we meet,
To worship at His blessed feet,
And tell the gospel story. [Refrain]

3 O gracious Lord, each heart inspire
And kindle there devotion’s fire;
Be this our one supreme desire,
To tell the gospel story. [Refrain]

4 At Thy command, and in Thy name,
Whose pow’r to save is still the same,
Join in the song with glad acclaim,
And tell the gospel story. [Refrain]
