Representative Text

1 Of the Saviour and His love, to those you meet
Tell the story, tell the story;
Make it clear and plain, unbroken and complete,
Tell the story of the Saviour’s love.

Refrain:
Weary not, toil on till the work is done
And the whole world joins the hosts above;
Till the angels echo back the sweet refrain,
Tell the story of the Saviour’s love.

2 “Go ye into all the world” is His command,
Tell the story, tell the story;
In a way that ev’ry soul may understand,
Tell the story of the Saviour’s love. [Refrain]

3 What tho’ some may scoff and others turn away,
Tell the story, tell the story;
Falter not, or wait a more convenient day,
Tell the story of the Saviour’s love. [Refrain]

4 Scatter good seed that will unto harvest grow,
Tell the story, tell the story;
Can you hope to reap if you refuse to sow?
Tell the story of the Saviour’s love. [Refrain]
