Representative Text

1 Jesus died to save us,
Life eternal He gave us;
Upon Calvary’s cross He paid the price of sin;
Tidings of salvation,
Shout with glad ovation,
Until every nation shall His praise begin.

Refrain:
Tell the beautiful story,
Tell the beautiful story
Of His wonderful glory,
Until every nation shall His praise begin.

2 Fill the world with singing,
Set the merry bells ringing,
Shout and publish to every creature Jesus’ name;
Send the leaves of healing,
Life and light revealing,
Until every nation shall His love proclaim. [Refrain]

3 Praise His name forever,
He is strong to deliver;
Naught is able to sever us from His embrace;
In the night He sought us,
To the light He brought us,
And at last we shall behold Him face to face. [Refrain]
