Peace and good tidings to earth."

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

Yet was triumphant at last.

Tell of the sorrow He bore,
He was despised and afflicted,
Homeless, rejected, and poor. [Refrain]
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. [Refrain] Used With Tune: STORY OF JESUS
