Tell Me the Story of Jesus

(Fanny J. Crosby - Sweney)



(Tell me the story of Jesus)

(Sweetest that ever was heard.)



Tell me the story of Jesus

Write on my heart every word

Tell me the story most precious

Sweetest that ever was heard.



Tell how the angels in chorus sang

As they welcomed his birth

Glory to Thy in the highest

Peace and the tidings to earth.



Tell me the story of Jesus

Sweetest that ever was heard.



Tell of the cross where they nailed him

Right in the anguish and pain

Tell of the grave where they laid him

Tell how he lived it again.



(Tell me the story so tender)

(Clearer than ever I see)

(Still let me weep while you whisper)

(Love great and grandsome for me.)



Tell me the story of Jesus

Sweetest that ever was heard...
