Go Tell the Gospel Story

Representative Text

1 Go tell the Gos­pel sto­ry,
Of love so pure and free;
Tell of a bless­èd Sav­ior
Who died for you and me;
Go tell how much He suf­fered
Upon the cru­el tree,
That all might have sal­va­tion,
And live eter­nal­ly.

Refrain:
Go tell the Gos­pel sto­ry,
Of love so pure and free,
Tell of the bless­èd Savior
Who died for you and me.

2 Go tell the Gos­pel story,
Of love so pure and free;
Tell of the com­ing glo­ry,
When we with Christ shall be.
Go tell the joy­ful sto­ry,
Proclaim it far and near,
That ma­ny now in dark­ness
The bless­èd news may hear. [Refrain]

3 Go tell the Gos­pel story,
And warn of com­ing woe;
Win ma­ny souls to Jesus,
That they His love may know.
Go tell the won­drous sto­ry,
Repeat it o’er and o’er,
And weary not with tell­ing,
Till time shall be no more. [Refrain]
